Default Count Unique Values

I'm trying to accomplish something VERY similar. I'd like to count the number
of unique values in Item_num that occur in Ireland between 10/1/2008 and
10/31/2008.

A B C
1: Item_Num Country Time
2: 12816 Ireland 10/6/2008
3: 12816 Ireland 10/6/2008
4: 25222 Russia 10/8/2008
5: 21363 US 10/17/2008
6: 30741 Ireland 10/24/2008
7: 30741 Ireland 10/24/2008
8: 48622 US 10/25/2008
9: 44844 Ireland 10/28/2008
10: 51008 Ireland 11/4/2008



With the above data, I would expect to get (3).

Can you help?

=SUM(--(FREQUENCY(IF((B2:B20="Wed")*(C2:C20="Morning"),MA TCH(A2:A20,A2:A20,0
)),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&ROWS(A2:A20))))0))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.
