Hi,
I am trying to create a table that summarises the number of times a name appears in a range (in this case an entire column, A:A) that has delimiter (in this case a forward slash) structured data and is filtered by the contents of an adjacent range (in this case an entire column, B:B, where the cell = "Open").
<tbody>
</tbody>
Is there any way I can achieve this?
Note, the names in the dataset can change so I would like to avoid hardcoding the names and simply using a COUNTIF function to achieve the output.
Many thanks for any help you can provide,
James

Example dataset | |
Tiger Woods / Greg Norman | Open |
Greg Norman | Open |
Tiger Woods / Ernie Els | Closed |
Ernie Els / Greg Norman / Tiger Woods | Open |
Example desired output | |
Greg Norman | 3 |
Tiger Woods | 2 |
Ernie Els | 1 |
