What is an addin (in Excel) and how can we create one?

[Guest]

Hi,
I want to know what an excel addin is and how to create an excel addin (not
the method Save as .xla) for say, to check the occurances of an item. In Col
A, several items are listed like item1, item2, item3 etc upto item10. Some
items repeat more than once. Can an addin be created to check the no. of
occurances of AN item in this list? If so how>
Thank You
