Default =EVALUATE("{ to work in a range of cells

I would like to know if its possible without using any addins or vba.
I have a strings of text in a range. Example:

Range

D2 c,b,z
D3 c,b,c
D4 w,h,c
D5 w,q,a
D6 z,p,c
D7 w,q,c

and so on...

So right now I'm using the EVALUATE Function. in the Define Name

Arrays:

=EVALUATE("{"""&SUBSTITUTE(Sheet4!$D$2&","&Sheet4! $D$3&","&Sheet4!$D
$4&","&Sheet4!$D$5&","&Sheet4!$D$6&","&Sheet4!$D$7 &","&Sheet4!$D
$8,",",""",""")&"""}")

and using this formula to exact the string of uniques from those
cells.

=INDEX(Arrays,MATCH(TRUE,ISNA(MATCH(Arrays,A$1:A1, 0)),0))

The results a

A2 c
A3 b
A4 z
A5 w
A6 h
A7 q
A8 a
A9 p

The problem I'm having is when I tried to modifiy the EVALUATE
Function into a range it wont work.


=EVALUATE("{"""&SUBSTITUTE(Sheet4!$D$2:$D$9,",","" ",""")&"""}")


Is there a way to get the EVALUATE Function to work in a range of
cells?
