Then....Try this:

With
A1: MyValues (the range must have a column heading)
A2:A100 containing various numbers

Select A1:A100

<Data<Pivot Table
Use: Excel
Select the data range (a1:A100)
Click the [Layout] button

ROW: Drag the MyValues field here
DATA: Drag the MyValues field here, too
If it doesn't list as Count of MyValues...dbl-click it and set it to Count
Click [OK]
Select where you want the Pivot Table to create the Pivot Table...but, we're
not done yet.

Next.....
Right-Click on the "MyValues" heading
Select "Group and show detail" from the shortcut menu
Select "Group"
Change the "Starting At" and "Ending At" settings, if necessary
Set "By" to 10
Click [OK]

Now the Pivot Table will display something like this:
Count of MyValues
MyValues Total
-100--91 4
-90--81 3
-80--71 3
-70--61 4
-60--51 3
-50--41 3
etc

Is that something you can work with?

With
A1:A1000 containing various numbers

This formula returns the count of cells with a value of 11

B1: =COUNTIF(A1:A1000,11)

OR....you could enter 11 in cell C1 and use
B1: =COUNTIF(A1:A1000,C1)

Does that help?

many thousands of numbers. I want to count the number of cells containing eg
the number 11. How can I do this?
