Again, what a thrill.
Ask the average user kenny is talking about how to get a count, on one
page in Excel, of all serial numbers in one column on another page
that have the digits '4567' as the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th digits in a
16 digit number. They'll look at you as if you have 3 heads, yet it's
a trivial little formula.
Almost no one. Hell, in my experience, very few use Excel for
anything more than handy tool for formatting text into rows and
columns!
When Word is actually better at formatting columnar text (either with
snaking columns or tables, depending on need).
And, no, I don't really know Word or Excel very well, I just use them.
