okay. thanks for your response. Sorry for not being clear enough. The raw
data under the row AG contains "People-1,People-2...." in each cell. and also
under row D, it contains the dates created.

So i need to filter out the numbers of cells with the word "People" and at
the same time, according to their month in a new worksheet. Thanks.

Hey guys pls help me now.

I got a worksheet of raw data. Inside this worksheet, I need to find and
count the number of cells containing the word " People" and this figure will
automatically appear in another worksheet in a cell. Is this possible.

Please advice
