My General Rules if you want my help. Not aimed at any person in particular:
1. Please Make Requests not demands, none of us get paid here.
2. Check back on your post regularly. I will not return to a post after 4 days.
If it is not important to you then it definitely is not important to me.
Administrative Note:
Welcome to the forum.
We would very much like to help you with your query, however the thread title does not really convey what your request is about. Tell us what you are trying to do, not how you think it should be done.
Please take a moment to amend your thread title. Make sure that the title properly explains your request. Your title should be explicit and not be generic (this includes function names used without an indication of what you are trying to achieve).
Please see Forum Rule #1 about proper thread titles and adjust accordingly. To edit the thread title, open the original post to edit and then click on Go Advanced (bottom right) to access the area where you can edit your title.
(Note: this change is not optional. As you are new here, I have done it for you today.)

Don't forget to say "thank you" in your thread to anyone who has offered you help.
You can reward them by clicking on * Add Reputation below their user name on the left, if you wish.
Forum Rules (updated August 2023): please read them here.
Post a small Excel sheet (not a picture) showing realistic & representative sample data WITHOUT confidential information (10-20 rows, not thousands...) and some manually calculated results. For a new thread (1st post), scroll to Manage Attachments, otherwise scroll down to GO ADVANCED, click, and then scroll down to MANAGE ATTACHMENTS and click again. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.
The formula you have attempted suggests you want a count of unique items starting with "exp".
Is that correct?
In that case tryFormula:
