You have to create a user defined function in VBA and use it to get the number of digits in a word

Other idea that I can think of is that use SUBSTITUTE to remove all digits. The difference in length before and after sub, can give you that answer too

=LEN(B1) - LEN(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(B1,1,""),2,""),3,""),4,""),5,""),6,""),7,""),8,""),9,""),0,""))
