Counting multiple values within single cells
Is there a way I can do this?
I have a spreadsheet with a list of branches in cells A1 - A300. I then have columns of data for each of the past 5 years (ie; B - F) and want to count the number of instances where particular items occur in each column (ie; 'apples' or 'oranges', etc). The difficulty is that in some cells there is more than one item shown ... eg: cell C10 may have 'apples' and 'oranges' - the data is entered this way using 'Alt+Enter' to delimit the 2 items as I don't want rows with empty cells. Is there a way of counting the items even though they are not in separate cells? Or is there a better way of approaching this? Many thanks. |
