Post the formula that you are using. Does it cover the correct range
of column G? Could you have spaces before or after some of those DPRS
values? You might like to try this:

=COUNTIF(G:G,"*DPRS*")

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I am using the countif formula in my spreadsheet to count the number
of times "DPRS" appears in say column G. for some reason it keeps
givong me the wrong answer i.e. instead of 29 I get 9 as the
answer.When I filter for "DPRS" I get 29. There are no blank cells in
between.

Thanks,
