Need to add the number of unique numbers in a column.. for instance i
might
have unit number PU114 listed 10 times in a spreadsheet but its only 1
unit..how can i create a formula to do this for me? also, anyway to do
this
in a pivot table rather than a traditional count of lines?

This will "COUNTIF" B2:B100 = "A" in a filtered list:

=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(B2:B100,ROW(B2:B100)-ROW(B2),0,1)),--(B2:B100="A"))

do anybody know, how to use "countif" with filtered lists?

the function subtotal does not allow conditions (e.g. "name")
the function countif does it, but it count hidden cells, too

thank you for your ideas

I have an excel spread sheet table that I filter. I would like to be
able
to
count the number of cells in the filtered data. Anyone know how to
do
this?
CountA returns the number of cells in the unfiltered data.
