I have an Excel 2000 spreadsheet used for daily entries for any given month.
Some of the columns have text values instead of numeric. It is possible
that the text entries would be the same for every day or they could vary
between 2 or 3 different text values. I would like to know if there is a
formula that would retrieve the most frequently entered TEXT.
Ex:
Jan 01 cat
Jan 02 dog
Jan 03 cat
Jan 04 dog
Jan 05 dog
Jan 06 dog
Jan 07 cat
Jan 08 dog
Jan 09 bird
Jan 10 cat
=============
Max dog
"dog" should be retrieved because its frequency was 5 while "cat" occurred 4
times and "bird" only once.
Thanks,
Ron
