Is there another formula that would be easier to use, then the one listed below, which returns the same amount:

=COUNTIF(AF20:AF111,"*Cash**")+COUNTIF(AF20:AF111,"*wats**")


Wats
Cash
Wats
Cash

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
You shouldn't need 2 asterisks at the end of each string.

=SUM(COUNTIF(AF20:AF111,{"*Cash*","*wats*"}))
