How to compare data from two excel columns and count values

Asked by sof1 in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software, Databases Miscellaneous, Access Coding/Macros

Tags: Microsoft, Excel, 2007

Hello experts,
I need to compare two columns in excel and count how often a specific value occurs in one column for each value in the other column. I think this will best be explained with an example:
column A               column B
010390-3239           2
020889-3459           2
120790-3439           3
081190-3149           2
280989-4959           1
300590-3329           3
.                               .
.                               .
.                               .
Here I would need to compare these two columns and count how often the number 1 appears in column B ,for each number in column A that has 89 as it 5th and 6th numbers (here that would be one time) Than how often the number 2 appears in column B for the number in column A that has 90 as it 5th and 6th number (here that would be two times) and so on.
Hope ths makes any sence and that you can help me with this.
