First of all I am sorry, there were some mistake in my question submitted earlier.

I have a file containing 14 columns. I would like to get answers i.e. number of characters without space from column 2 (description) multiplied with quantity in column 6 either in column 7, or 8, or 9 or ….. 13 based on value in column 5. Example “if value in column 5 is 3, then the character count with quantity multiplied from column 6 should come in column 9” like if value in column 5 is 8, then the character count with quantity multiplied from column 6 should come in column 13”, etc, etc.. Please help.

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
You haven't displayed any row numbers so I'm having to guess what the rows are.
Assuming "AIR LINE" is on row 4

INDEX(G4:N4,1,E4)

should return the value to multiply the character count by

In that case why is K value 42? I don't see 42 characters in "| CT WATER OUTLET"
and L value should be 26 not 24
M value shoudn't be 42 either.

This assumes data starts on row 4, adjust formula as necessary
In G
=IF(COLUMN()-6=$E4,(LEN($C4)-(LEN($C4)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE($C4," ","")))),"")

copy to the right and down for as many rows is needed

Except for some of the capitalization I have recreated your sheet, which helps us better than a picture by the way.

What are you expecting exactly, and where and why?

You're saying you're not getting the result, but I have to guess that it's not that you are not getting a result, but not the result you want.

Is this what you want?
