    Any Way To Speed Up Calculations

    Hi

    I have an excel 2013 (64 bit) workbook having nearly 800K records where I need to count the occurrence of each company name in the company column

    Using the following formula to run the calculation -

    The issue is, it is taking a very long time to process this. I understand there is massive amount of data that needs to be processed, but I was wondering if there was any other formula which would do the same thing but faster?

    My PC configuration is nothing great but not too bad either (I think) - Having a hexa core CPU with 8 Gigs of RAM

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Can you sort the data by company name? You can then reduce the number of COUNTIFS and the range involved for many of them. Or use a pivot table to perform the counting and then extract the results using GETPIVOTDATA.

    I agree that a pivot table should speed things up, but with that much data, no option will really be that fast
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
