Have a column with hundreds of names. Sometimes the names appear more than
once. Would like to total the column by the number of names. Do not want a name added to the total more than once. EX: John Smith appears 5 times in the column. I only want it counted once. Thanks. |

sort
This'll count the number of distinct values in a range:
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A99<"")/COUNTIF(A1:A99,A1:A99&"")) (adjust the range to match, but don't use the whole column) Bobt wrote: Have a column with hundreds of names.
