Use a vlookup to lookup up and count the amount of unique numbers
Can I use a VLOOKUP to return a count of unique values associated with
certain people? Ie. can I use a vlook up to lookup and then count of a number of unique reference numbers associated with a person called 'John Smith' and then put that count total in a particular cell? ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
