Count Characters in Field
Is there a way to do a search for all fields that contain more than 1000
alphanumeric characters? -- Brandon http://www.PresentationsDirect.com |

Re: Count Characters in Field
Found it . . . Insert a formula like =Len(a1) in a separate column and then
sort by that column to see the characters. -- Brandon "Brandon" <bsmith@presentationsdirect.nospam.com> wrote in message news:O%23AsXnbuIHA.4952@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > Is there a way to do a search for all fields that contain more than 1000 > alphanumeric characters? > > > -- > Brandon > http://www.PresentationsDirect.com > |

Re: Count Characters in Field
What do you mean by "search"?
LEN(A1) will give you the number of characters in A1, so you could put this formula in a helper column: =IF(LEN(A1)>1000,"Yes","") and copy down. You can then apply autofilter to this column and select Yes from the filter pull-down. Hope this helps.
