Hi All, 
I'm transitioning from excel and trying to use functions like 
=countif($BA$2:$BA$36,"Fr*") to count all the freshmen in my class list, and I 
find that the asterisk, *, is not recognized.  If I replace "Fr*" with either 
"Freshman" or "freshman", I get the right count with a bit more typing.  

But I also want to count cells with entries such as "Undergraduate Degree - 
Business (Pre-Mis)" and "Undergraduate Degree - Business (Acct-Pre)" using 
=countif($AZ$2:$AZ$36,"*Bus*") so I still need something that functions like 
the asterisk.  Anyone know how?

Thanks,
Mike
