Counting case sensitive data


Posted by Rob Stone on February 13, 2002 8:15 AM

Hi,

I am trying to count a Column of data which is in Case sensitive format. For example, is there a command for searching and counting all the "h"'s in lower case and then all the "H"'s in upper case and display a total count for each?

Are these h's part of a larger string? If so, are there more than 1 per sting? [nt]

The h's are a single character.

These array formulas would do the trick...

{=SUM(EXACT(A1:A10,"h")+0)}
{=SUM(EXACT(A1:A10,"H")+0)}

Note: Array formulas must be entered using the
Control+Shift+Enter key combination. The
outermost braces, {}, are not entered by you --
they're supplied by Excel in recognition of a
properly entered array formula.
