Counting cells with multiple data
Hi folks,
I'm tracking game data for a few players and am running into a problem. On doing a web query, column D will show the following data below. Here are four cells of those 50. I'm trying to count the # of 1st, # of 2nd & # of 3rds. I've used countif, count a, and several other formulas and get a 0 result. I know it's probably a very simple formula, but I'm stumped. 3rd of 8 2nd of 8 1st of 6 3rd of 5 3rd of 11 Thanks for any help. Thanks, Bob |

Hi!
Try this: A1 = 3rd of 8 A2 = 2nd of 8 A3 = 1st of 6 A4 = 3rd of 5 A5 = 3rd of 11 C1 = 1st C2 = 2nd C3 = 3rd Formula in D1 copied down: =COUNTIF(A$1:A$5,C1&"*") Biff "Bob Smith" wrote in message k.net...

Thanks for the reply Biff. I figured it out this morning before opening up
your post, by reading another post here that discusses using the "*". :) Bob "Biff" wrote in message ... Hi!
