Thanks for you help and offer Julie. I guess it didn't like the
copy/paste
method.
I entered it manually. Thanks again!

Hi

i don't have any other ideas, do you want to email your workbook so i can
have a look? - send it direct to julied_ng at hcts dot net dot au - it's
11.38pm here so i probably won't get to it until tomorrow.

This is what I did Julie....
Copied and pasted the formula into the formula bar and changed the cell
coordinates
then hit control, shift, enter. Thanks again.

Hi

are you sure you're using control & shift & enter to enter the formula
and
not just enter
have you changed a1:a10 to your actual range?

Thanks much for your help Julie. Really appreceite it. I keep
coming
up
with 0 as the total. There's probably about 15 different names.
I'll
work
with that formula awile to see if it will solve this. I'm sure it's
just
me.
Thanks again.

Hi

you can use the following array function (enter it with control &
shift &
enter, not just enter):
=SUM(1/COUNTIF(A1:A10,A1:A10))

where your data is in the range A1:A10
