Adjustment:

The formula I previously posted can be used to count occurrences of text in
a range.
Since you're only testing one cell, use this
B1: =LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(UPPER(A1),"A",""))


Does that help?

- ART GOES TO CAMP, it would say theres only one A, theres actually 2.

number of A's in a cell, or any other letter that I define. Thanks.
