Hi,
I'm trying to find a way to calculate the number of words in each of the names listed in Column A, so I can sort the names based on word count.
The formula I was given by a kind soul on another forum doesn't work. It gives errors and an incorrect count for certain names.
=LEN(A2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A2;" ";""))
The semi-colon is used instead of a comma, which didn't work at all.
This is a sample of the list:
Haidan Zhong
Haiqin Lao
HaiYen Lim
Hamilton Franco
Hamish Jonathan Hay
HanBin Tan
Handi Ajimasta
Handian Lo
HangWei Low
Hanjie Lee
HanKit Lin
HanLei Chong
HanLing Tan
HanMing Huang
Hanna Katerina Tantoco
Hannah Claire Day
Hannah YinLai Leong
HanQuan Luo
HanTang Wai
Hanwei Tan
HanXiang Sng
Any ideas how to show the word count in column B, so I can sort them (names with two words first, then three words, and so on)?
Thanks.
