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 _______________________________________________ gnumeric-list mailing list gnumeric-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnumeric-list
