    recording continuously changing data in excel.

    Hi.
    I am try to build a frequency table in excel 2007 to record the outcome of two excel built rolling dice for a school homework.
    I have tried using different functions like "=countif(" to no avail.
    I want the table to automatically record in separate cells how many times each possible outcome appears in 100 rolls of the dice.

    All help appreciated.

    File attached if you need a visual aid to help. Press F9 to roll dice.

    Re: recording continuously changing data in excel.

    To avoid the use of VBA and iteration, in some cell and copy down 100, 1000, 10000, ... rows,

    =RANDBETWEEN(1,6) + RANDBETWEEN(1,6)

    Then apply your FREQUENCY or COUNTIF function to that data.

    Now solved, I changed the iteration to 1-1 and used the formula "=IF(G$8=5,B13+1,+B13)"

    Working file attached.
