Count occurances in data
I have a large amount of data- 2000 lines
stock code/ description/ depot sold to / qty sold what I want to do is count the amount of stock codes in that sheet. So product 'A' might appear up to 20 times at diferent depots and more than once at a depot. But I just want to count A as 1 occurance. When I pivot it counts the amount of times that product appears. But I just want to know that e, I have 20 products occuring in the list.. Is there a pivot function to do this? |

Count occurances in data
Copy the Stock Code header to an empty column
select the range of data Use Data-Filter-Advanced Filter use Copy to a new location & select the copied header BE SURE to check Unique records only You'll get a list of stock codes that appear in your data "JONSPONGE" wrote: I have a large amount of data- 2000 lines stock code/ description/ depot sold to / qty sold what I want to do is count the amount of stock codes in that sheet.
