JMP Users,

        Sorry, my original message (below) apparently was not clear enough.

        Thanks for the quick responses from Mark Bailey and Donald Palahnuk, but I do not understand how
to utilize the suggested answers (if possible) as a simple row formula.

        I am looking for a JMP formula, typically created using the formula editor.  I am not looking for a JSL script
(although mabe this will work?)

        Formulas (when copied from the JMP Formula Editor GUI using SNAGIT and pasted into Lotus Notes  
looks something like this:
       
        If I directly copy and paste into Lotus Notes the formula looks like this:

        If( :Name("Prob(Classification Set 03==1) Model 10") > 0.4, 1,  :Name("Prob(Classification Set 03==2) Model 10") > 0.4, 2,  :Name("Prob(Classification Set 03==3) Model 10") > 0.4, 3, Empty())
       

        Again, I would be most grateful if someone could help me.  Thank you,
       
        Regards,
        Jim Metz

        JMP Users,

        Can someone please help.

        I am trying to create a JMP formula which will count the occurence(s) of a character or small group of characters in
a string.  For example, I would like to count the number of "{" left squiggle braces in a character string.  

        Another example, I would like to be able to count the number of occurences of "C1ccC1" in a character string.

        I would be most grateful if someone could figure out a row formula how to do this.

        Thank you.

        Regards,
        Jim Metz
