Count how many in one multi select column

gwson

I have an OLIT Training Column that is of multi-select dropdown type. The column is tracking who has done training on what software. I would like to get a simple count how many specific software item are in the column range. I am using the following so far but it only counts if there is only one selection in a cell, it will not count if the cell has multiple selections.

=COUNTIF([OLIT Training]:[OLIT Training], "SnagIt")

Hi @gwson

I hope you're well and safe!

Try something like this.

=COUNTIFS([OLIT Training]:[OLIT Training], CONTAINS("SnagIt", @cell))

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Best,
