Hi

From where are you? Or more important, what are your Windows regional
settings? When there is a semicolon selected as list delimiter , then use
it instead of comma in formula!

I can't figure out the way of doing it. There is a note about it on

microsoft
web site You can count the number of words in a cell by using the

following
formula:

=IF(LEN(TRIM(A1))=0,0,LEN(TRIM(A1))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1," ",""))+1)

But it's not working. I can't even enter this formula since exell

complains
every time that formula is not correct.

Any ideas?
