Hey stylencia18,

This is one way to do it via a VBA code if you like. The way it works that it will show you an input box where you have to enter the first company name & then another input box for the second company name then it will show you the number of contacts they bid against. Let me know if this works for you or in case you are having any issues

PS. Couple of remarks:

  1. I assumed that your data starts in cell A1 with a header in row 1
  2. When you write the company name in the input box, it will also search partial text so ensure to have the exact company name to avoid mistakes

Code: 
Sub CompaniesList()
Dim Dic As Object, k As Variant, Ar As Variant, CompA As String, CompB As String, Cnt As Long
Set Dic = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
CompA = InputBox("Please enter first company name below ...")
CompB = InputBox("Please enter second company name below ...")
Ar = ActiveSheet.Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Value
For i = 2 To UBound(Ar)
    If Not Dic.exists(Ar(i, 1)) Then
        Dic.Add Ar(i, 1), Ar(i, 19)
    Else
        Dic(Ar(i, 1)) = Dic(Ar(i, 1)) & "," & Ar(i, 19)
    End If
Next i
ReDim Ar(1 To Dic.Count, 1 To 1)
For Each k In Dic.keys
    If InStr(1, Dic(k), CompA, 1) > 0 And InStr(1, Dic(k), CompB, 1) > 0 Then
        Cnt = Cnt + 1
        Ar(Cnt, 1) = k
    End If
Next
If MsgBox("There is " & Cnt & " contract(s) that both" & vbNewLine & _
    "    a. " & CompA & vbNewLine & "    b. " & CompB & vbNewLine & _
    "placed bids against. Would you like to see the contract numbers in a separate new sheet ?" _
    , vbYesNo + vbInformation) = vbYes Then
    With Sheets.Add(after:=Sheets(Sheets.Count))
        .Range("A1") = "Contract Number"
        .Range("A2").Resize(UBound(Ar)) = Ar
    End With
End If
End Sub

Thank you for replying! If I have a list of 8,000 companies do I need to run a macro for each pair of companies?

For the code provided above yes, you would have to run each pair. Can you post a sample of the expected result & I’ll adjust the code accordingly

Hey mse330:

I was hoping to obtain aresult similar to the following:


Company Names Numberof Contracts Bid Against Each Other
Fun Company Inc. & Joe’sPools 1
Go N Wash LLC & FunCompany Inc. 4


Is it possible to generate alist of all potential company pairs and then run a count?


Apologies if this doesn’tmake sense!

How did you do that?! I am trying to count the number of contracts they both bid on. In other words, when both company names appear under the same contract number.
