    Analyzing the frequency of occurance of specific numbers?

    I am working on a database to analyze lottery numbers!

    I have inputted the daily numbers from the last several months. I want to look at how frequently specific numbers are selected. example: how many times in the last 450 days did the number 7 get selected? etc. I want to do this for all 43 possible numbers. Attached is the sheet I am working with.
    Thanks

    am unable to upload your file (im on 2003 at the moment), but a cheap and nasty work-around for that would be to have a list of all your numbers in (say) column A, then in column B, use...
    =countif(your-range,A1)

    copy that down, making sure you absolute your range 1st
    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
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you
