Formula to sum the number of selections made in a multi-select dropdown?
I have a dropdown with a total of 9 possible selections, but for formula purposes, I want to have a column represent how many of those selections were made. Therefore, if all 9 were selected, I want a cell to represent the number 9; 8 selected, the cell to represent only 8, and so on... The dropdown selections are words.
Thank you,
