Top 5 records by month
are the issues always the same (i.e is issue 1 always going to be "wrong type
of snow" if so use the countif option to count how many times a issues is listed, then use the rank option to rank the issue compared to how many other issues "tmirelle" wrote: Need to graph top 5 reasons over time Column A.....

are the issues always the same (i.e is issue 1 always going to be "wrong type
of snow" if so use the countif option to count how many times a issue is listed, on sheet 2 where you have your results (and assuming that the row is row 6) A B Issue 1 =COUNTIF(Sheet1!E:E,Sheet2!B6) Issue 2 =COUNTIF(Sheet1!E:E,Sheet2!B7) ect this would count the amount of times issue 2 occured in your list "tmirelle" wrote: Need to graph top 5 reasons over time Column A.....

Top 5 records by month
OK, so this is heading in the right direction...
Yes they are always the same issues (18 of them used as a validation list) but 2 things: this doesn't address the by month issue & is it possible to only list the top 5 rather than producing a rank for all 18 reasons thnx "Rich" wrote: are the issues always the same (i.e is issue 1 always going to be "wrong type of snow" if so use the countif option to count how many times a issue is listed, on sheet 2 where you have your results (and assuming that the row is row 6) A B Issue 1 =COUNTIF(Sheet1!E:E,Sheet2!B6) Issue 2 =COUNTIF(Sheet1!E:E,Sheet2!B7) ect this would count the amount of times issue 2 occured in your list "tmirelle" wrote: Need to graph top 5 reasons over time Column A.....
