Counting occurance of word in list
I’ve had a need to count the number of times a certain value (in this case, a word) appears in a list when using OpenOffice.org.
Here was my problem. I had a long list of values, each had a status of either “good”, “bad”, or “incomplete”. I wanted to count the number of times each of the follow occurred. It turned out to be pretty easy.

COUNTIF(range,expression)and bobs your uncle.Related posts:
