Count of Each Item in a List See Also:Count of Items in List COUNTIF ||Count Only One Occurrence

With the aid of a Pivot Table and Excel VBA we can get a count of each item that appears in a list. Let's say the list currently resides in A1:A100, with A1 being a heading and many items appearing more than once. Copy the code below into any standard Module of the same Workbook that houses the list. If unsure how to do this, read instructions after the code below;

Sub CreateCountOf()Dim strHead As StringDim strSheetName As StringDim strListAddress As String    strHead = Selection.Cells(1, 1)    strSheetName = "'" & ActiveSheet.Name & "'!"    strListAddress = Selection.Address(ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1)        ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _                strSheetName & strListAddress).CreatePivotTable TableDestination:="", _                TableName:="CountOf"                   ActiveSheet.PivotTables("CountOf").AddFields RowFields:=strHead        With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("CountOf").PivotFields(strHead)            .Orientation = xlDataField            .Caption = "Count of" & strHead            .Function = xlCount        End With            ActiveWorkbook.ShowPivotTableFieldList = False        Application.CommandBars("PivotTable").Visible = False    End Sub

To add the code, open the Visual Basic Editor via Tools>Macro>Visual Basic Editor (Alt+F11) then go to Insert>Module and paste in the code above. To run the macro, go to Tools>Macro>Macros (Alt+F8) select the macro name and click "Run".
