Hi all,

New to excel and have no idea of how to proceed, any help or pointers
would be greatly appreciated.

I have a column of Names, with multiple instances of each name, and I
need to find out how many entries there are for each name. This column
will be added to regularly and the number of instances for each name
will probably change over time

How should I approach this?
