I've used this before but now it isn't working. When I try to use the
advanced filter to return a column of unique values, it returns the same list which includes multiple of the same values. It doesn't matter if I select to filter in place or copy to another location. I made sure unique values was checked. I tried it several times. Can anyone help please? Thanks, Joe M. |

Perhaps it's extraneous white spaces (especially hard to see "trailing"
spaces) messing things up. Try TRIM on your original data col, then run unique filter again Eg: If your data is in A1 down, put in B1: =TRIM(A1). Copy down to the last row of data. Then copy col B, overwrite col A with a paste special as values. Clear col B. Then run unique filter on col A - see what you get this time as the results -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "Joe M." wrote: I've used this before but now it isn't working.
