------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Jun 21 13:20:24 -0700 2005 ------- Excel's version of COUNTIF supports wildcards * and ? in the criteria, but Calc doesn't. These wildcards have been in use since CP/M (before Microsoft!) and I can't see any reason for Open Office not to use them. I use the criteria "??*" to count both "Op" and "Ins" because my instructors are also operators and I want a total of everyone who can operate. I just want to count all the 2 and 3 letter words. I don't want to use regular expressions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
