    Count number of "1" in a cell

    Hi,

    Can anyone help me with a formula please that will count the number of 1's in a cell.

    e.g.
    in a cell I may have:
    1010110

    I would need it to return the answer 4

    I have uploaded an example file for reference

    Paul

    Hi

    In a cell(example H1), type the number that you want to count how many times is in Column D.

    In E2 put the Array Formula(CSE)

    Hi pauldaddyadams

    YOu have asked to count 1's within a cell
    then use the formula
    =SUMPRODUCT(--((MID(I2,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(I2))),1))="1"))
    sorry if I understood wrong.

    since they are text just use
    =LEN(D2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(D2,"1",""))
