I have a huge worksheet, consisting of codes in Column A, a product name in
Column B and a cost price of the item in Column C. Each product some times
appears more than once as they may have more than one cost price.

How do I filter the list so it will only show me one record of each product
rather than several, depending on the number of cost prices each item has?

Hope this makes sense??

Thank you.

Is the easiest way of doing this to perform an Advanced Filter on all the
data to show only those three columns and then adding sub totals, asking it
to insert a sub total at every change in the Product name??

Since you don't care about column C, just copy the HEADERS for columns A & B
to an empty spot on your sheet, then use Data-Filter-Advanced Filter

Select Copy to another location, check Unique records only, then select the
Copy to box and indicate the 2 cellswhere you copied the headings from
columns A & B. Click on OK & Excel will generate the list for you
