Hi..
I have a captured csv file of a telephone bill.
I would like to filter the data as follows,
The numbers called must be grouped together.
the most dialled numbers  must be at the top (or bottom) of the sheet- maybe
indicating the number of times it was dialed (occurance)

Thanx

You should obtain a unique list of numbers dialled on a separate sheet
using Advanced Filter, then you can use a COUNTIF formula to count how
many calls are made to each of those numbers, then sort this in
descending order.

Hope this helps.

many calls are made to each of those numbers, then sort this in
descending order.

This will give you the most frequently dialled numbers.

Hope this helps.

Sorry about the multiple postings above - Google Groups has been
playing up recently and for each of the above it told me there had
been an error when I sent the response. I gave up in the end, but
obviously the message did get through four times.

Say your data is in column A like:

123-456-7890
123-456-7890
456-123-7890
123-456-7890
456-123-7890
123-456-7890
456-123-7890
789-543-4865
123-456-7890
456-123-7890
123-456-7890
123-456-7890
123-456-7890
456-123-7890
456-123-7890
789-543-4865
789-543-4865
123-456-7890
123-456-7890

In B1 enter:

=COUNTIF($A$1:$A$19,A1)  and copy down

You should see:

123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
456-123-7890    6
123-456-7890    10
456-123-7890    6
123-456-7890    10
456-123-7890    6
789-543-4865    3
123-456-7890    10
456-123-7890    6
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
456-123-7890    6
456-123-7890    6
789-543-4865    3
789-543-4865    3
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10

Now sort cols A & B by B Descending and A to see:

123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
123-456-7890    10
456-123-7890    6
456-123-7890    6
456-123-7890    6
456-123-7890    6
456-123-7890    6
456-123-7890    6
789-543-4865    3
