Really useful if you want to find out if a given word within a text string appears in a cell or cells in MS Excel.

This is great. You can upload two pieces of text (my two pieces of text were HUGE) and determine which words they share and which words are common, but unique to each piece. Shame that there is no function to copy the tool, and your content, to another place and continue to use the functionality thereafter....

Brilliant tool, great graphical displays. You can upload data but seems you have to make it public in the gallery.

From Contextures.com
-
- Select the cell in which you want to see the count (cell A12 in this example)
- Type an equal sign (=) to start the formula
- Type: COUNTIF(
- Select the cells that contain the values to check for the criterion. In this example, cells A1:A10 will be checked
- Type a comma, to separate the arguments
- Type the criterion. In this example, you're checking for text, so type the word in double quotes, with one or more asterisk (*) wildcard characters: "*Pen*"
Note: upper and lower case are treated equally
- Type a closing bracket
The completed formula is: =COUNTIF(A1:A10,"*Pen*")
- Press the Enter key to complete the entry
- The result will be 6, the number of cells that contain the string, "Pen"
Match criterion in a string
You can count cells that contain a criterion as part of the cell's contents. In this example all Pen, Gel Pen, and Pencil orders will be counted, because they contain the string "pen".

This is a brilliant tool, and its not necessary to leave any data in the public domain as the resulting file can be saved to file. Lots of fonts etc.
