WARNING!!!! For counting the length of the contents of a cell, you don't use quotes, just the cell reference! |

Of course BizMark. I only used the quotes to indicate that "cell" should be

Just remember that LEN() reports the length of the answer for a formula, not
the length of the formula itself. -- Gary's Student "Markos Mellos" wrote: =LEN("cell") "Leezo" wrote: could anyone tell me the formula for counting charachters in a cell |
