I am looking for the most common pattern of cells across a range when selecting an outcome from the data range. The worksheet looks like the following.

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 704pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=939><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 54pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 2633" span=12 width=72><COL style="WIDTH: 56pt;

Column 1 is Col D on the worksheet. The data Range is from D2:O2. Each row represents a different set of data.

What I would like to do is be able to say : If Col P (Result column) = "STL" what is the most common pattern across the row where "STL" is found?

The formula needs to look at the entire data set D2:O7 for each instance of "STL" and look across those rows with "STL" to find the most common pattern.

By pattern, I mean most common consecutive cells equaling the same data. Maybe the best way is to search through the range for the most common "cell", most common consecutive "cells", or most common "string of cells"?

I'm at square 1 with this formula so any help would be outstanding!

Thank you
