In this section, we will explore how to count words in Excel cells. The first step is to add a column for the word count. To do this, on the column header, click the "Insert Column" button and select "Insert Below." Then give the new column a title like "Word Count." Next, we need to identify what words are in each cell in order to calculate the word count for each cell. There are a couple of ways to do this - you can use Excel's built-in search function or you can use Windows' built-in find and replace function.

Searching is easy enough - just click on the cell that contains the word and start typing. You'll see all instances of that word highlighted as you type it into your search bar.
