    count how many "projector" = 5

    =SUM(LEN(A1:A3)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1:A3,"projector","")))/LEN("projector")

    sorry

    array formula

    ctrl + shift + enter

    not enter only.

    I think people forget the word "THANK YOU!!!!" Do you still know it???

    There is a little star ( ADD REPUTATION ) below those person who helped you. Click it to say your "PRIVATE APPRECIATION TO THEIR EFFORT ON THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS "

    Is there a way that you can make 'projector' a reference to another cell so that i can copy the formula without having to write it over and over?
