counta formula that doesn't count duplicates
I have excel 2003
How can I create a formula that counts items in a column without counting duplicates? sorry if this comes through twice, I entered it once and it doesn't seem to come up even though other new questions have popped in. thanks Meenie |

Hi,
Try this with the range adjusted to suit =SUMPRODUCT((A1:A10<"")/COUNTIF(A1:A10,A1:A10&"")) Mike "Meenie" wrote: I have excel 2003 How can I create a formula that counts items in a column without counting duplicates? sorry if this comes through twice, I entered it once and it doesn't seem to come up even though other new questions have popped in. thanks Meenie |

Ah,
I see what you mean Bernd seems to have reservations regarding that method. Hope he doesn't spot my response ;( http://www.sulprobil.com/html/count_unique.html Mike "T.

Yeah, that's it.
Seems every time I suggest a formula for counting uniques Bernd always finds me and "chastizes" me for my suggestion. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Mike H" wrote in message ...

Biff, Bernd,
On reflection I won't recommend that formula again I'll recommend the much faster alternative. Goodnight both and a very happy Christmas. Sincerely, Mike "T.
