Scan column for first of a list
 

I have a spreadsheet with over 20,000 lines. It is clothing and there are
styles, color, size, etc.

I would like to scan down column "A" and only have each style print once.
In other words, print the style only on the first one of an entire list of
the same style.

Can anyone help ? Thanks.
