Count the number of cells between same values

[Shade42]

Hello,

I need help with a formula than will count number of cells between same values.

This thread http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/795116-count-number-cells-between-values.html has an almost ideal formula for me but I need the numbers range between 0 and 99 instead 0 and 1.

In my example I will count cells between number "5". (attached)

Thanks for your help

That's it! Thank you very much. Saved me a lot of searching and thinking. Additionally is there a tweak to show 1 instead of 0 (and same logic for all other numbers) when there is the same number after number - 13,16,5,5....
