I've inherited some data to work with that I'm not sure how to approach.
Basically, multiple answers are contained within a cell. I need to extract a sum of each individual answer. The data looks like this: Special Education Students;#Economically Disadvantaged Students;#Minority Students;#Regular Classroom Students;#Gifted and Talented Students Special Education Students;#Economically Disadvantaged Students;#Minority Students Special Education Students;#Economically Disadvantaged Students;#Minority Students;#Regular Classroom Students;#Gifted and Talented Students Special Education Students;#Economically Disadvantaged Students;#Regular Classroom Students Special Education Students;#ESOL Students;#Regular Classroom Students Special Education Students I need to know how often "Special Education Students" occurs in 70 rows of data; how often "Minority Students" occur, how often "Regular Classroom Students" occur, etc... I've tried CountIf but that only works if the cell only contains "Special Education Students" Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. |
