Hello Ruth, Vergel and David, Thanks to each of you for your reply. I have
come to work this out since sending my message in.
To resolve, after sorting the column by company I ended up doing a subtotals
count (under data) and that represented the # for each company. Then I did a
manual formula on each subtotal lines to get the percentage for each. I'm
going to try Vergel's method when I get back to the office this week and I will
let you know. Thanks again for your reply, I do appreciate it.Maryann> Date:

one column has the names of many companies. I ran the sort on it but now I will
like to get what is the % for each company represented. This may be basic in
excel, but new for me. Do I have to rework the sheet somehow, or can I get
this somehow just from the data in that one column? A chart would also be good
but I don't think I can achieve if the data is just left in the same column.>
