I want to count the maximum consecutive occurrences inside a range.
The formula i use now can only search in one column or one row.
I want to count the maximum consecutive occurrences inside a range.
The formula i use now can only search in one column or one row.
Do the columns carry over to the next column? For instance, would a "1" in C19 and a "1" in D4 count as consecutive entries? If the answer is yes, then the formula below appears to be working for me. It should be array entered with Ctrl + Shift + Enter:
=MAX(FREQUENCY(IF(C4:L19=O3,ROW(C4:L19)+16*(COLUMN(C4:L19)-3)),IF(C4:L19<>O3,ROW(C4:L19)+16*(COLUMN(C4:L19)-3))))

Well no, but that should not be a big problem, but if i search for "3" instead of 7 which should be the correct result i get a 3

Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question, then. I only see 3 consecutive threes. Where do you see 7 consecutive threes?
Here,
Your seems to have an extra "3" in D7
Ah! There are definitely a few differences between the data in my attachment in post #2 and your initial sample. I changed several boxes to test out whether my formula was working properly or not, and I'm not surprised that I didn't switch them all back correctly. I apologize if that created confusion. My intent was that you would try using the formula I came up with in your actual data. Does the formula produce the answer you were expecting when it's used on your actual data?
