Dear Experts:


I got a field / column in a table with different values (country
codes):


COUNTRY
ES
EN
FR
FR
DE
EN
US
GB
GB


I now would like to find out how many times the different values have
been entered such as:


ES 4
EN 5
DE 1
GB 7
US 8
etc.


Help is much appreciated. Thank you very much in advance. Regards,
Andreas


One way would be to use a Pivot Table.

Drag the country codes to the Rows area, and also to the Data area. *Be sure it
defaults to "Count" of Country.

Sort and Format to taste.
