Counting the ones, twos and threes - Please Help
I have been reading for some time and cannot find what I thought would be an
easy one! I need to COUNTIF or SUMPRODUCT and find how many instances of 1 appears in any number in any cell. Then, I need to do the same for the numberals 2 and 3. Please, can someone help. I expect to be using A1 through U1 only. Thanks! |

=COUNTIF(A1:U1,1)
or maybe you want =SUMPRODUCT(LEN(A1:U1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1:U1,1,""))) the latter will count 3 ones if one cell look like 2111 -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "SWOcala" wrote in message ...

So would 11 count as 2 or 1?
