Default Counting Unique Values


Hello All,
I have a question related to counting unique values in a column of
data. I will try to illustrate my question. I have a column of data
with 1000 rows. In this column there are duplicated values. I would
like to be able to use a function count how many unique values are in
the column. Let's say there were 4 duplicates of 250 values in the
column. I would like to be able to write a function to calculate the
250. I am very familiar with Excel and am able to acheive the number
through subtotals and/or pivot tables. I know I can find how many
instances one specific value appears in the column through sumproduct
and/or countif statements, but the function to calculate the number of
unique values has really got me stumped.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!!
RJ
