can a formula be made to do the following:
if a line item has the same name in column C then add 1 to column B
i.e.
the count column is generated depending on the name field
date count name address
oct-1 1 bob 123 first st
oct 1 1 john 789 ave a
oct 5 1 ed 456 main st
oct 3 2 bob 123 first st
oct 2 1 bill 81 second st
oct 2 3 bob 123 first st
ALL THE COLUMN B CAME OUT TO 1,
I need it to add 1 if it was already listed.
See bob has 3 entries.
I just noticed that at the end of the formula the } is missing. I tried to
redo it and it will not show up.
If I look at the function argument the totals are right.
I saved the file. then reloaded it and the counts were correct.
THANKS
