    using a cell reference for criteria in vba countif

    excel1.png

    I have 5 cols of data that I want to count occurrences in.

    I have run a unique filter to list the ID's in a separate area.
    Now I want to count occurrence for each column and ID using VBA.

    I am attempting to use countif with the criteria being from a cells text.
    If I run

    Range("O" & i).Formula = "=countif(O15:O" & lastrow & ",n165)"

    , it works fine, but I can't get it right to run with the cell as a reference.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    That did the job.

    Don't know why I couldn't see it myself.

    Many thanks
