=SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(SEARCH("word",I1:L10)))

Hi all,
I have a large spreadsheet and I want to make it work faster. Initially, I
perform a check in some cells of the same row (eg I1 to L1) if they contain a
specific word. Additionally, I need count that word only once in every row.
Thus the function is like:
=IF(COUNTIF(I1:L1,"*Word*")1,1,COUNTIF(I1:L1,"*Wo rd*")). My problem is that
I need to add all the results of the functions (one from every row) and sum
them at the end, without using 80,000 separate cells. What I want to do could
is something like the next expression which is not permitted:
=SUM(IF(COUNTIF(I1:L1,"*Word*")1,1,COUNTIF(I1:L1, "*Word*")):
IF(COUNTIF(I10000:L10000,"*Word*")1,1,COUNTIF(I10 000:L10000,"*Word*"))). Can
you please give me a good piece of advice? Thank you in advance.
