I have a list of users who have registered for an event. There are hundreds of records.

I would like to create a list of how many users are from each state. Any ideas on where I could find some help or suggestions for this.

I looked on Youtube but I must not have been searching under the right term.

Thanks for your help

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Have you used a pivot table? It's a great way to summarize your data by whatever criteria you specify. You can have the pivot table give you the count of each state. We can talk you through it if you haven't used one before. What version of Excel do you have?

Also, SUMIF is a function that will work - but you will have to list all of your states.

I'm sure there's plently of great videos that will help.

If not, maybe these directions will:
Highlight all your data (make sure they have a header row)
Hit Insert/Pivot Table
Hit Okay
Drag your "State" field to the "Row Labels" section of the Pivot Table Field List
Drag the field that you want to count to the "Values" section

Let us know if that didn't work.

Are all the states in the same column ?

You could try =Countif(a:a,"Georgia") if they are.

Change the a:a to the appropriate column range of course :)
