find unique records
How do i search a column of data which contains for instance multiple numbers
of headings, find each unique record item (ie apple , pear, orange) and then display a list of each type (no duplicates) in a new range of cells. I will then be able to use this record list as a means of providing a "record type count" in a different worksheet. Thanks |

find unique records
You can get the count of unique items using the below formula..
=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A100<"")/COUNTIF(A2:A100,A2:A100&"")) If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "frankfurtjoe" wrote: How do i search a column of data which contains for instance multiple numbers of headings, find each unique record item (ie apple , pear, orange) and then display a list of each type (no duplicates) in a new range of cells.

Hello Frankfurtjoe:
Assuming your data starts in row 2, paste this formula in cell C2 and copy down. Hide column C. Code:
=IF(A2="","",IF(COUNTIF(A$2:A2,A2)=1,COUNTIF(A$2:A$1000,"<"&A2)+ROW()/100000,"")) Code:
=IF(ISERROR(SMALL(C:C,ROW()-1)),"",INDEX(A$2:A$1000,MID(SMALL(C:C,ROW()-1),FIND(".",SMALL(C:C,ROW()-1)),6)*100000-1,1)) |
