I have to analyse some data in an excel spread sheet. I need to be able to display the number of times a certain value is encountered, eg



1 2.

2 2.

3 2.

4 2.

5 2.

6 2.

7 2.

8 2.

9 2.

10 2.

11 2.



I need to display that the value 2.3 appears four times and 2.5 appears twice

I have tried the frequency function but it does not work as I though
 
David,

This is what you want

=COUNTIF(A:A,2.3)

David,

An easy way to do it is to sort on the value and then use subtotals,
function: Count.
