Hi,
well, actually it should work, but maybe you have trailing or leading
spaces somewhere which prevent the duplicates form being " erased".
So, maybe you can record a macro, involving the TRIM function to get
rid of unwanted spaces, then apply Sheeloo's technique.
Then apply the macro when needed.

That doesn't seem to work. It's not filtering out the duplicate "White"

value. Also, this is something that I want to automatically calculate.
The
text values in cells A1:A4 in our example are subject to change and are
not
constant. I want to filter out those duplicate text values
automatically.
So if there is a change in A1:A4, changes in B1:B4 are automatically
done.

Wouldn't this involve an INDEX formula?

Select the range A1:A4
Choose Data-Filter-Advance Filter
List Range box will have A1:A4
Check the checkbox 'COpy to another location' and enter B1 in the

box
Check 'Unique records only'

I've got the following series of data (maximum of 4 data fields per

Cells A1:A4

White
Red
White
Blue

I want to produce a list in another column to pull those values
minus
duplicates. So my column should read

Cells B1:B3

White
Red
Blue

What formula do I use to accomplish this? Thanks!
