pardon me for my confusing question. Even I don't know how to say it correctly so i'll just illustrate it
Column A Column B
A Mark
A
B John
B Gina
C
C Kevin
D Joy
D
D Mary
Now, I want to count the number of data on the column B depending on what is on the column A (they are on the same row).
Column C Column D
A 1
B 2
C 1
D 2
Thanks!

try this (untested as I am not on a PC):
=SUMPRODUCT((($A$1:$A$9)=C1)*(($B$1:$B$9)<>""&$A$1000))
Any empty cell in place of $A$1000 will do. This assumes that column C is an input, let me know if else. Place this In cell 'D1' and drag it down. Hope it helps, Sorry if I missed something, cannot test at the moment!

In Excel 2007 and later you can use COUNTIFS
. Assuming data in A1:B9:
=COUNTIFS($A$1:$A$9,C1,$B$1:$B$9,"<>"& "")
