    Counting the various name in the one column of excel and writing the related number

    Hi friends,

    I have a large excel file containing the various name in the one column, which some names may exist several times. Please take a look at the attached file as a small example. I was wondering if there is any way to count different name and generate a output like this:

    Citrus sinensis 8
    Vitis vinifera 3
    so on,

    Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks so much for your help in advance

    Simplest would be to use a Pivot Table.
