Group,
How can I count the number of characters that appear in a cell?
The characters are in text. The only characters appearing are 0-9, A,
B, C, D, E, F and $. I need to know how many characters appear in a
cell give a Row, Column. Actually it doesn't matter what characters
reside in the cell, the number of characters is the important thing I'm
looking for.

Tony
