Default Mimicking an GroupBy Clause in Excel


Does anyone know of an efficient way to:

Look at all of the cells in a selected column range,
identify all of the unique values in that column,
return each unique value into an array.

I think the nearest analogy I can think of is the GroupBy clause i
SQL, in Access I have a really really clunky vba routine at the momen
that basically says:

While not at the end of the list
If the current value is already in the array, don't do anything
If the current value is not in the array, add it in there
move to the next value in the list
Wend

Works fine for very small sets of data but obviously slows down fo
very big data sets

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
