I have a spreadsheet that contains text (Business names, addresses, phone
numbers, etc.). I'd like to COUNT the number of a specific word (business
manufacturer) in a column. How do I do that?
 
I tried that. I keep getting a "0" as my total. The formula I used was:

=COUNTIF(A3:A119,"Toyota")
 
If the word is embedded in longer text, write the formula as

=COUNTIF(A3:A119,"*Toyota*")
