I want to put a formula in a cell, to check if a range of cells
contains one character.
I think it seems like

ActiveCell.Formula = "=" & "COUNTIF(" & first_cell & ":" & last_cell &
";" & ""P"" & ")"

where first_cell and last_cell are the bounds of a range
and "P" is the character I want to check if it exists

but it does not work
