    Counting number of specific number of xxx in each cell?

    Hello all, I had been looking online to find a solution to my problem and was lucky enough to stumble on this board. I had 2 questions someone on here can hopefully solve.

    When working with a group of cells (say 10x10) with a number in each cell, what is the easiest way to count the number of 3’s for each cell (ex: 23253.213 would be 3)?

    Secondly, how do I change each 3 to an 8 one at a time for a cell, like change3once = 28253.213, change3twice = 28258.213, etc?

    Thank you in advance

    Martin; Thanks for your quick response. I see it works for an excel cell, but I am unable to get it to work in Visual Basic (editing my macro). Is there something different I need to do so it will work there?

    BUMB: Still unable to figure this out

    Secondly, how do I change each 3 to an 8 one at a time for a cell, like change3once = 28253.213, change3twice = 28258.213, etc?
