Default GROUP

Hello,

I am looking for a function similar to the SQL function GROUP BY in
excel.

Basically what I want to do is make a list of all the unique variables
in a list. After that I want to use the COUNTIF function to make a
frequency table.

Thus from the list:
a
b
a
c
a
c

I want to get the list

a
b
c

Only the unique variables.

I am surprised that EXCEL doesn't have a pre-defined function for
this.

Anyone knows how to do it?

Jochem
