Merging to Lists into one Unique List
Ok, that changes things!!!!
Let's assume column B is longer than column F. The ranges are B1:B10 and
F1:F5.
Enter this formula in I1:
=SMALL((B1:B10,F1:F5),1)
Enter this formula in I2: (normally entered)
=SMALL((B$1:B$10,F$1:F$5),1+SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIF(B$1 :B$10,I$1:I1)+COUNTIF(F$1:F$5,I$1:I1)))
Copy down until you get #NUM! errors meaning all the uniques have been
extracted.

Thanks Biff,
How would I get it to work if my real data was in Column B and Column F,
instead
of A & B as per my initial example. I would like the unique list to be
displayed in Column I.
Also, there is no set length to the amount of numbers that are in both
Columns B and Column F.
Thanks!

Hi!
Try this:
Enter this formula in C1:
=MIN(A1:B4)
Enter this formula in C2 using the key combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER
(not
just ENTER):
=IF(MIN(IF(A$1:B$4C1,A$1:B$4))<C1,"",MIN(IF(A$1:B $4C1,A$1:B$4)))
Copy down until you get blanks.

Hello,
I have two lists of numbers in different columns, and require Excel to
generate one column of unique numbers from both lists.
Example:
Column A Column B Column C
1 1
2 3
3 4
5 5
I would require Column C to generate a listing of unique numbers from
both
Column A and Column B. In this example, Column C would generate the
list of (1,2,3,4,5).
THANKS!
Rob
