Hi

With your source data in columns A and B with headings of Type and Amount,
add a new heading to column C called Frequency
In C2 enter
=COUNTIF($A$2:A2,A2)
and copy down for your entire set of data

Place your cursor on the header rowdataPivot TableFinish
On the new skeleton Pivot Table grid that appears,
drag Type to the Row area
drag Frequency to the column area
drag Amount to the data area
