A pivot table won't count unique values, but there's a workaround here,
if you're using an Excel list as the source:

Can someone help me please?

I have a pivot table which looks like the below showing per person the
number of ref #s created per date, i want it to show e.g. for Anna that she
has had 2 ref #s (12456 & 37890) created on 3 seperate dates therefore the
answer i want is a count of the date i.e. 3.

Name Date Ref #
Anna 01/02/06 12456
12/03/06 12456
14/05/06 37890
Bella 12/01/06 43978
Chris 10/02/06 21435

If this makes sense to anyone can you help me at all?

Thanks in advance...
