Hi and thanks in advance to whoever would like to take on this task. Please bear with me as English is not my first language, I will try to be as clear as possible. I would be very grateful if you could help me in this query.
I would like to count the occurrance of the character S as shown below but counting the character as 1 when it appears in a contiguous range of cells
<tbody>
</tbody>
The formula should give therefore a total of 5 while using countif would give me a total of 10
I do hope I have explained everything clearly. Thank you for your help and interest. Looking forward to a reply whenever is convenient.
