Mon-Fri to the column area

We currently have approx. 700 schedules in our scheduling software and
we often need to export them to count how many Mon - Fri, Tue - Sat,
Sun - Thr shifts. Being a 24x7 operation, the combination of days
worked vary alot. Ex. Mon, Tue, Fri, Sat, Sun. The format of our
export is MTWRF--. Dashes always indicate days off. In addition, to
count the number of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd shift schedules - an indicator
accompanies each schedule. These are FT1, FT2, FT3, PT1, PT2, PT3. FT
= Full Time (number = shift).

I have tried IF statements, countif, etc... My problem is that there
are so many variations of days off that I cannot place the logic in
them. To further their complexity, some are Part Time and some work 5
x 8 schedules, others have 4 x 10's.

Can anyone assist me some code or formula that will read:

M--RFYS FT1
---RFYS FT1
MTWRF-- FT3
-TWRF-- FT3
-T---YS PT2

and tell me that I have 2 Monday - Friday FT3 schedules / 2 double-day
weekend FT1 schedules / 1 double-day PT2 schedule.

We only need their Shift (FT1, PT1, etc.), single or double day
weekend, or no weekend days (Mon - Fri) in the reports.

Any and all help is appreciated!
