Count of Columns that contain a word

Hello!

 

I am trying to create a new column of data that counts the number of times other columns of data, in the same row, contain a certain word.

 

In this example, I want to know the number of columns that contain the word "Completed" for each user.

Hey @Clandmann 

Have a go with this solution:

If you use the transpose tool, you can then count the number of columns which contain 'completed' per row

 

Hope that helps,

 

Ollie
