I tried to creat pivot table to count name in the range A1:F5

The pivot Table didnot consider names in column B,C,D,E & F

hat 2
jug 1
man 1

Hi

Your data is not in a format that is suitable for analysis with a Pivot
Table in this way.
Create your List of Items in A1:A7 of Sheet2
In B1 of Sheet2 enter
=COUNTIF(Sheet1!$A:$F,$A1)
Copy down through B2:B7
