    Count formula

    Hi - Please help. I have about 50,000 different numbers in column A. All the numbers are 1 through 40. I am trying to count how many times number 1 shows up and number 2 shows up, etc... However, I do not want to count number one as showing up in number 11, 21 and 31. I just want to see how many times each number shows up in each cell as its own number.
    Thanks.

    maybe:

    =COUNTIF(A:A,1)

    Yes- Do you ever have excel act crazy on you and when you have a formula in a cell it doesn't even work or gives you a ridiculous number and when you try and change it, it gets worse. Why does it do that? Anyway, yes I tried that formula originally and it gave me a number like 39,000 which I know was wrong because there was only 40,000 cells. Anyway, I kept clearing the cells and your formula works now.
    Thanks a million.

    Assuming the data is listed from A1 through A5000:


    =COUNTIF(A1:A5000,1)

    repeat the formula changing the value to 2, 3, 4, etc until finished
