I am having difficulty tyring to figure out how to have crystal read a string field for specific words and then based on the words provide a count of the instances of the word.  I thought I would use something like If field like "sample text then count else if field like 'sample text 1'

you can use running totals
evaluate for the string and create another that evaluates when false
evaluate like '%string%'
