I have an Excel® question?

What formula do I use to find a common number within multiple cells of a large Excel® spreadsheet?

Update:

Yes, I am trying to find the number or numbers that are appearing the most. I will try this...

Thank you.

I am actually trying to determine the top 3 numbers?

    Are you asking for how to find the number that is appearing the most? If so use the MODE formula

    example:

    If I have numbers in cells A1 to Z1000 my formula would be

    =MODE(A1:Z1000)

    Data in col A

    B2 =IF(A2=F$2,"",A2) copy across 1 column then down to match col A

    F2 =MODE(A:A) copy across to H2

    or you can use the sort/filter feature to display the top 3 numbers
