I have a VERY large spreadsheet with lots of data on it. I want to count how
many cells contain, for eg, the word "Open" and how many contain the word"closed, "Paused" etc... There are lots of cells with the same word in, but around 4000 cells altogether, so using "find next" is taking for ever... Can anyone help? -- Rob, Teesside, UK |
