Bob,
Thanks for your reply but it did not assist. I received the #value response.
I will give you a brief example of what I am after.

Table A1 = 320
A2 = 767
A3 = 73H (NON NUMERIC VALUE)
A4 = 744
A5 = 737

The data sheet E1 = 320 L1 = 100
E2 = 737 L2 = 99
E3 = 320 L3 = 121
E4 = 747 L4 = 35
E5 = 320 L5 = 190
E6 = 767 L6 = 130
E7 = 737 L7 = 145

The result that I would expect is
320 = 2 (only 2 occurrecnces 120)
767 = 1 (only 1 occurrence 120)
73H = 0 ( no matching data)
744 = 0 ( no OCCURRENCE 120)
737 = 1 ( only 1 occurrence 120)

I hope that this small example explains my problem.
By the way, what does -- indicate or mean?
Thanks again.
Allan

Hello
Hopefully some kind person can assist with this.
I have a worksheet with n number of rows (can vary from 30 to 3000) and
columns from a to m (13). I need to count the number of times that column
L
value exceeds 120 when column E = a pre defined value. This pre defined
value
can equal 320, 744, 743, 73H and many more.
I have a table set up that has these required "pre defined values". Keep
in
mind that this table is dynamic, values can be added or deleted. The
reference for this table is on another worksheet "table" A1..A15. I don't
mind where this table is located, it just happens to be in this seperate
worksheet.
I can sort or filter however I was wondering if there was a better way to
count the occurrences.
Many thanks
Regards
Allan
