I use Excel 2007 and I'm trying to find code or a formula that would count the number of consecutive cells in a row from left to right until it there is 0, Below is an example of what I'm trying to do:

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 245pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=324><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 28pt" span=5 width=37><COL style="WIDTH: 22pt; mso-width-source: userset;

Column J has the results.

I'm sorry I'm not going to download anything from that site. Try rather to explain what results you did get if you will.

Ok! I try to explain: Results from soccer league example:

Team121
Team101
Team111
Team122

<tbody>
</tbody>

So, I would like to count Team1's GG (both teams to score at least one goal) max. seq, current (or last) seq and the numbers of GG seqs. From up to down table sorted by date.
In this case Team1 GG max seq is 2. The current GG seq is also 2 and numbers of GG seq is 2 (1+1).
Of course with helper columns I have a solution, but I would like one array formula if it is possible.
All i have is the league results as input datas. Of course there are "blanks" cells between team's result, where displays the other teams' results. Hope you'll understand.
Thanks!

Hi,would you mind helping me figure out what code to use if I am trying to compute the maximum number of consecutive items on a single row? Similar to what was done before except they are not just 1s. Here's what it should look like:

Hi

This site is awesome and was always able to help me out but now I need to post :)

I am also looking for something very similar, so allow me to re-open the topic...

My table only has number 1s and 0s as data. (I can remove the zeros if required)
I want to count how many times a sequence of number 1s takes place.

Below an example. Column L willl have the formula.

So, If there is a space, it means the sequence ended, and the next time 1 comes up, it will be counted as another sequence.


ABCDEFGHIJKDesired Results (L)
1000110000001
2011011001113
3010000001000

<tbody>
</tbody>

Thank you in advance and your help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Aladin

I have another one, I am sure you can assist

Columns in use B6:BA6 = 52 weeks

Example:

My current problem - I need to identify how many of the consecutives equal to 8 or more
EE_No
(A)
W1W2W3W4W5W6W7W8W9W10W11W12W13W14W15W16W17W18W19W20Counts >=8
1000111111110000000001
2111111111010111111112
3010000000101110000000

<tbody>
</tbody>

Extra question: if the values were NOT 1s but amounts can I still count it? So >0?
EE_No
(A)
W1W2W3W4W5W6W7W8W9W10W11W12W13W14W15W16W17W18W19W20Counts >=8
100033115645131217640000000001

Thank you in advance.
