Hi,
I have report which has similar scenario as below. I go “f” in field and want to count number of “f” occurs in each row. If any row does not contain “f” then it should return 0 (zero). If the row contains “f” then I should count them.
Any ideas please, how to count the numbers of “f” in each row through crystal report formula?

ID    A     B    C   D   Total
1             f          f       2
2      f                         1
3      f      f     f    f       4
4                                0

local numbervar iNext := 0;
local numbervar iCount :=0;
do (
  iNext := instr(iNext + 1, {table.field}, "f");  //this is case sensitive
  if iNext > 0 then iCount := iCount + 1;
)
loop while iNext > 0;
iCount
