Im using the formula =SUM(LEN(B2:B955)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B2:B955,"Pension","")))/LEN("Pension") This works fine to count the number of occurances for the word Pension but Im stuck when trying to count using multiple criteria eg the the Pension and the word Scheme. Any help is greatly appreciated. Sam.D
Try =SUM(COUNTIF(B2:B955,{"*Pension*","*Scheme*"})) OR for whole cell match =SUM(COUNTIF(B2:B955,{"Pension","Scheme"})) -- Jacob
Thanks, works great, huge help. Cheers Sam.D
