Counting how many options are selected in a cell?
I am trying to count where there are multiple selectable options in a cell.
Tried using =Countifs but the issue I am having there is that it doesn't count the number of options selected, only the number of times specific criteria are selected.
I am trying to get to:
If option 1,2,3, or 4 is selected, it returns "1"
If any two options are selected it returns "2"
etc.
Any help is appreciated!

I hope you're well and safe!
Try something like this.
You'd use the COUNTM function to count how many options are selected in the cell.
=IF(COUNTM([Option Column]@row) = 1, 1, IF(COUNTM([Option Column]@row) = 2, 2))
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!
