==========================================

Hi to All,

For example, cell A1 contains a text string such as 56,58,12,1,22,893
I want to determine how many numbers are contained within the string
Simply, counting the commas and adding 1 one seems to be the easy
answer. . . How can I create an Excel formula to count the commas,
or please suggest an alternative method.

Thanks for your help,

Cheers,
RonW
