Formula to find requested number
Do you want to check how many times one specific number appears? Use:
CountIf(B2:F50,XX) where XX is the number you want to count. If you want to check for all the numbers from 1 to 56, enter the following formula into a cell in row 1 and drag that formula down to row 56. CountIf($B$2:$F$50,Row()) HTH Otto "Glockman" wrote in message ... I want to find how many times a number 1 thru 56 shows up .

Formula to find requested number
Hi,
Your question is not clear. If you want to know how many times a number between 1 and 56 shows up, you may use =sumproduct((B2:F2=1)*(B2:F2<=56)).

Formula to find requested number
=COUNTIF(A3:E50,1)
That will count how many times the number 1 appears in the range. If you want to count how many matches you have against the winning numbers... Let's assume A1:E1 are the winning numbers. A3:E50 are the numbers you played Enter this formula in F3 and copy down to F50: =SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A3:E3,A$1:E$1,0)))) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Glockman" wrote in message ...
