In this example I would like to count the number of rates ,maximum
rate and minimum rate say between 2.33 pm and 2.38 pm

Thanks in adavance

Assuming your data is in columns A and B, then to count them:

=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A200=--"14:33:00")*(A2:A200<=--"14:38:00"))

Maximum is given by this array* formula:

=MAX(IF((A2:A200=--"14:33:00")*(A2:A200<=--"14:38:00"),B2:B200))

and minimum by this array* formula:

=MIN(IF((A2:A200=--"14:33:00")*(A2:A200<=--"14:38:00"),B2:B200,10^100))

I've assumed your data occupies up to 200 rows - adjust these ranges
if you have more.

* With an array formula once you have typed it in (or subsequently
amend/edit it) you must commit it with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER (CSE) instead
of the usual ENTER. If you do this correctly then Excel will wrap
curly braces { } around the formula when viewed in the formula bar -
you must not type these yourself.

Hope this helps.

One way would be to use the following Array formulae

Count {=SUM((A8:A36=TIME(2,33,0))*(A8:A36<=TIME(2,38,0) ))}
Max {=MAX(IF((A8:A36=TIME(2,33,0))*(A8:A36<=TIME(2,38 ,0)),B8:B36))}
Min {=MIN(IF((A8:A36=TIME(2,33,0))*(A8:A36<=TIME(2,38 ,0)),B8:B36))}

Array formulae have to be entered or amended using Control+Shift+Enter (CSE)
not just Enter.
When you use CSE, Excel will wrap your formula in curly braces { } . Do
not type them yourself.
