Default Adding the number of table entries by type

Hi,

I have a table which has the letters A-F appearing a number of times in the
fields

e.g.
A A A A B C D E F
C D A B E F A A B
.....

I want to add the number of times the letter A or B etc. appears and display
the answer in another blank field outside the table above.

What I would like to do is have a second table that shows the answers like so:

A 7
B 4
C 3
D 2
E 4
F 6

How do you get the fields to add up the contents of letters?

Help much appreciated.

Thanks.
