tonystony_4me here is the formula you can use (assuming you have excel 365 sub)
=LET(n,$B$12,c,$B$13,t,$A$1:$G$10,letters,OFFSET(t,ROWS(t)-ROW(INDEX(t,1,))-n+1,MATCH(c,INDEX(t,1,),0)-1,n,1),ltrs,UNIQUE(letters),counts,COUNTIF(letters,ltrs),CHOOSE({1,2},ltrs,counts))
where B12 is the # of rows to count, B13 is the column header to check and A1:G10 is the table/range.
See attached sheet.
