I am using Office 2003 on Windows XP.

I need to be able to count the number of each item in a single element
array, then write out the counts.

For example, if the array contains:
Red, Blue, Red, Orange, Orange, Red, Green, Blue

My result would be:
A1: Red B1: 3
A2: Blue B2: 2
A3: Orange B3: 2
A4: Green B4: 1

If anyone has a function to which I could pass my array to output the counts
or could share some code I could adapt it would be most appreciated.

Thanks much in advance.
