Count matched pairs and triples of the spreadsheet

[Lottoguy]

I have a spreadsheet with 115 lines of 10 units of data on each line. 5 different numbers and 5 different letters on each line. I m trying to find out how I write a macro to show me the matched pairs and matched triples on this spreadsheet. My other question is how do I count all the numbers of the spreadsheet and I can delete all the lines that dont have that choosen number. I would like to learn how to count sequences, so I ve to count all the numbers of the spreadsheet and delete all the lines that does not have that number, so I can count it again. My excel isnt counting letters, so I have to find out how to program the excel to count both letters and numbers together. If you can help, please let me know how I do it. I really wanna make this statistical report.

Re: how to count matched pairs and triples of the spreadsheet and an additional question

It is not totally clear to me what you are trying to achieve.

A. You want to highlight (in some way) doubles and triplets on the sheet.
---question: Are these totally doubles (triplets) in that all 10 cells are identical?
---Do you want to count these or delete them? Have you looked into the Excel /Data/Remove duplicates menu?

B.

how do I count all the numbers of the spreadsheet and I can delete all the lines that dont have that choosen number

What 'chosen number' ?

I would like to learn how to count sequences

What do you mean with counting sequences?

I ve to count all the numbers of the spreadsheet and delete all the lines that does not have that number

What do you mean with count all the numbers?
What do you mean with 'that number'?

My excel isnt counting letters

I am assuming you mean cells with text. Have you looked at the COUNTA() function?

Re: how to count matched pairs and triples of the spreadsheet and an additional question

I asked 3 different questions, and you are mixing them up. The 1st question is: How do I count the number of occurences of matched pairs and triples on all the 10 line data of the spreadsheet. Each line (row) has 5 different numbers and 5 different letters, totalling 10 data line.
2nd question: How do I count all the numbers of the spreadsheet at once. Like how do I program the excel to display a table showing the number of occurences of all the numbers of the spreadsheet.
3 rd Question: I d like to count the number of occurences on all the lines (rows) that has an specific number that I ll find out which number is, and the lines (rows) that doesnt have that number will be excluded or hidden, so I can count the lines (rows) left that has that number that I want to count.
Did you understand what I wanna do or do you still need more info?
