This may sound dumb but i'm having trouble getting this to work. I want to return the number of times a text appears in a single cell. So, i have a paragraph of text, within which "text" appears 5 times. What's the best formula to get that value?
Example paragraph:
"This article explains how you can use worksheet functions in Microsoft Excel for Mac to count the number of occurrences of a specific number or text string in a range of cells on a worksheet. The "More Information" section of this article contains sample formulas that you can use to do this."
Key text: "this"
Output value: 3
I've thought about using a string of "Find" formulas and starting the nested finds +1 of the previous start number but that seems like a hassle. Thoughts?
