Thanks, Dave, I did that, it worked, but it shows that Copying unique records
to a new location feature doesn't work in Excel2003. I wonder has it been
fixed in Excel2007.

Don't use the criteria range (leave it empty).
Do the advanced filter against a single column A1:a14
Make sure unique records is checked.

After the filtering is done, select both columns.
(F5, ctrl-g, edit|goto)
Special|visible cells only

Copy those visible cells (now including both columns)

paste into the new location

Hi All,

I'd like to make a simple filter for unique records copied to another
location.

The layout is this: two columns, A:B, 14 rows including a header. Unique
filter is to be made by column A, but I want to copy both columns to a new
location.

When in the advanced filter dialog
List range: $A$1:$A$14
criteria range: $A$1:$B$14
then in-place filtering is correct, but I can't in any way achieve the
filtered range copied to another location, say C1.

Any ideas?

Another question is that why List range has to be $A$1:$A$14 (the volumn by
which uniqueness is checked)? For me calling this range criteria range should
be more logical, and range $A$1:$B$14 should be called List range (cells I
want to list in another place).

Maybe I misunderstand something not being a native English speaker, please
explain me the correct usage of filtering unique records!

Thanks,
Stefi
