Want to count data using the values entered in UserResponse

Anyone please?

When I use UserResponse(“Enter values:”) and display it in report, it looks like this, for example

aaaa;bbbb,cccc

That is fine. Problem is I want to count based on each value seperately .

When I use match function in sum function, sum(match(“aaaa”;UserReponse(“Enter values:”))), it will match against the whole string aaaa;bbbb,cccc, so it will return 0.

Do anyone know how to solve this?

You’d need to bring in the item that you’re filtering on.

If you want to know the number of values entered in the User Response, why not count the number of semi-colons and add 1?
