Try this formula:

=COUNTIF(B:B,B2)

or, if you don't have Excel 2007, use this

=COUNTIF($B$1:$B$65536,B2)

Try
=COUNTIF(B:B,B2)
in any cell not in column B on the same sheet.

Hope this helps,

Excel 2003 does allow full column references with the COUNTIF function.

Be careful B2 is in the range B:B so you will be counting the criteria cell
of the COUNTIF function, do you really want to do that?

Thanks for pointing that out. I wasn't sure so I gave an alternative
solution too, just in case full column reference was not allowed.
