Need a function

[jcc31]

Hi All,
I need a function or something that will make my file work. What I want to do is get all the one colum go down and check to see if there is a "W","P", or "C". And when it finds one there it will add to the my total count. For example:
Column B
1 W
2 C
3 W
4 W
5 P
6 C
7
8
9 W
10 P

Total W = 4
Total P = 2
Total C = 2


PS I'm sending a file along with this just to show

If I understand correctly, youwant the COUNTIF function =COUNTIF(A1:A10,"W") adapt as necessary. Is that it?
