Counting Unique Codes
I have a list of Purchase Orders Codes (alpha-numeric data) and I want to
know how many different POs are being hit in a list of monthly purchases. For example: EV134 SD234 EV134 WD686 WD686 EV134 SD234 HK128 So, the answer I would be looking for is 4. Is there a easy way to do this? I have a formula that calculates this with numbers, but the text seems to mess it up. Any help would be appreciated - Thanks - P |
