Hi Max,

I'm not certain how this will compare column A to column B if X exists and
give me a total count?

Thanks!!

In C2:
=IF(B2="","",SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(B2,A$2:A$100)))))
Copy down to last row of data in col B

So I've looked this up and found the following...

- multiple criteria with COUNTIF can't be used
- can't use wildcards in an array
- not sure if the nested ISNUMBER(SEARCH function is what I need to use

I have 2 columns of data that I need to find the total number of x in
column A if x exists in column B.

Column A contains folder paths as data
Column B contains a mix of numbers & text
