I am using arrow wingdings (CHAR233 or CHAR234) in the same
column and I would like to count them.

I don't need a separate count of 233s or 234s I just need a
count if the column is occupied by one or the other.

I have tried various contexts of the formula posted below without
success.

How do I count multiple characters in the same cell?

Thanks.

=COUNTIF(A11,CHAR(233,CHAR(234))
