Good one Jay, I tought that the question was
"is there a way to count how many ?"
where the "?" was an actual "?"...
I did think it was a funny way to phrase a question, but I have seen
much worse before...


Yes, I read the post a couple of times before it started to make some sense.

Of course, my instinct was to reach for a macro, but Suzanne's answer is
easier to use.
