Thank everyone for suggestions
I would like to add a given condition for this matching.
There is a list of values under column A & B
[Column A] 1,5,6,8,9,10,3,20
[Column B] 6,4,9
I still want to count the number of matched values in column B.
The condition is expanded the range for each value on column B and the range
value is stored in cell D1, which is 1.
For example, without applied the given condition, the value 4 in column B is
not a matched value on column A, because there is no 4 value in column A, but
once the condition applied, the value of 4 in column B will become any value
between 3 [4-1] and 5 [4+1].
If the range value is 2, then the value of 4 in column B will become any
value between 2 [4-2] and 6 [4+2].
Since the range value is 1 in this case and 5 in column A is matched the
range between 3 [4-1] and 5 [4+1], therefore the original value 4 in column B
becomes a matched value in this case.
Therefore the matched values with given condition are 6,4,9, which is 3
matched values and return 3 in cell C1.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to add this given condition in order
to determine the number of matched values in column B?
Thank everyone very much for any suggesitons

Try this:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(MATCH(B1:B3,A1:A8,0))))
