How to return a record count?

[regent77]

hello All,

I am new to VBA programming. I have an Excel sheet with a list of records. For instance, Last name and city. I would like to write a macro to select the desired city and return a count in Excel. For instance, user selects Denver, and the program will return 15.

Thank you very much.

Can you not just attach the sheet as a linked table in Access? then you can query that table as any other table in Access.......if that is,you are working IN Access, as opposed to excel

I'm assuming this is actually in Excel, though it would be a good idea to say so in your question if so, considering this is an Access / VBA forum.

Firstly, you can include COUNTIF() in a formula, to count the rows that match your criteria. If you want to do this in VBA, then there is also a method, WorksheetFunction(), that allows you to use this function in your VBA.
