Okay, first a bit of context... I work in the airlines, and I've designed a spreadsheet to help me track flight delays and make my reports at the end of the night easier. I have a table on a separate page that auto-refreshes based on a website. I have a COUNTIF formula that searches a column (column W) for a particular string of text (in this case, "CL" and "LTCL"). However, in some cases the column will include things like "CNCL" or "PCCL", and my counters go up because it includes "CL." Here is my formula:
=SUM(COUNTIFS(SSD!W:W, {"*CL*","*LTCL*"}))
Can I modify this so that it only finds EXACTLY CL or LTCL and counts? I want to exclude any other codes that include a rogue "CL". (for example the word "CLOSED" in that column causes it to count up one.)
All my google searches returned answers for INDEX and MATCH functions, and that's not what I'm looking for.
