Count occurances of text in a cell
Good day,
I have a sheet with numerous text strings all in the same column. I need to search each and return the number of occurances (total) of the words "medicare" and "eomb" cointained in each string. I've tried this function: =COUNTIF(A1:A10,"*medicare*")+COUNTIF(A1:A10,"*eom b*") but it only counts 1 occurance of each. I need to the total times the word 'medicare occurs plus the total times 'eomb' occurs. Any suggestions? |
