countif
I want to count the occurrences of multiple character strings eg. "AB" "XD"
and "CD". Is there an easier way than = (countif(1:100), "AB") + (countif(1:100), "XD") etc. |

countif
Thank you! Exactly what I am looking for. I tried to put something like
this together but didn't realize that I would have to use "SUM" and I admit that I don't know when to use the characters "{" and "}" in a formula.
