Thank you Miguel.

In column B in attachment 206617, you include cases with a tilde character
immediately followed by a wildcard-related character. Column B includes the
corresponding _search_criteria_ argument for the countif() function.

Unfortunately, the important item that attachment 206617 does not include is
the _search_criteria_ having a tilde immediately followed by a character that
is _not_ related to wildcards. That is the key argument (i.e. the search
criteria) that changes the result according to either wildcards, or regex, or
none of them.

For attachment 206617, we would need the results (in Excel with standard
wildcards support, no regex) of a value in column B such as "Where~a", or, even
better, a value such as "Where~0" in _both_ columns, A and B, and the
corresponding results in Excel.

Beware: in Calc, also the "Search criteria = and <> must apply to whole cells"
setting must be enabled (ON) for the comparison with Excel to be relevant,
AFAIU (but I could be wrong).

I am leaving the status of the report unmodified. I still hope that someone can
report the results in Excel with a relevant _search_criteria_ argument.
