Trouble with calculations in Excel table

[Crumbs]

Hey,


I have a table of number sof high-rise buildings in the US (attached here). What I'm trying to do (with formula or code) is to compute how many buildings there are (in all the US) with 14 floors. How many with 15 floors. Etc. with each number of floors. I am beginner-level with VBA. I started by sorting everything according to number of floors, then writing a For loop to go through the rows and start adding the numbers, but I ran into trouble that I didn't know how to handle (know when it's the first instance of that number of floors in order to start counting anew form there, etc.). You can see my code (very preliminary) in the file.


I need something like this (for all numbers of floors):


14 floors - 400 (buildings)
15 floors - 250
...




After that, I also need to do the same thing, but this time divided by States, meaning:


AK:
14 floors - 100
15 floors - 50
(for each state and for each number of floors)




I would be really glad for help with this issue.. too many little details that I'm not sure how to handle.
Thanks a lot!

This seems like a pivot table issue. You can do a count for each of the floors and then filter based on the number of floors. I looked at the file you provided and I only see US buildings.

Thanks I'll try that out, never used one so I'll need to read about it a bit, unless you guys can send me specific instructions.

OK thanks a lot VoG and vavs, I read up a bit about pivot tables and indeed that did the trick. I always heard the name but never actually needed to use it, thanks!
