A quick and dirty solution, first thing that sprung to mind:
Find the length of the string, find the length of the string without your word, divide that difference by the length of your word:
Where A1 is your string and cheese is your word (can obviously point that at a cell instead):
=(LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"cheese","")))/LEN("cheese")

@pifko
This should be an easy one for you lot, but I have been struggling.
I'm trying to write something which counts the number of times a particular word appears somewhere within a string. plsthanks
