copy only unique values
 

I have 2 columns of data. How can I create a 3rd column of only unique data?

ex
Column A Column B
197199201/19000000/08/21/2005/190 197199201/19000000/12/31/2002/376
197199201/19000000/08/21/2005/190 197199201/19000000/12/31/2002/376
197199607/19000000/08/21/2005/190 197199607/19000000/12/31/2002/376
197199607/19000000/08/21/2005/190 197199607/19000000/12/31/2002/376

Column C should return
197199201/19000000/08/21/2005/190
197199201/19000000/12/31/2002/376
197199607/19000000/08/21/2005/190
197199607/19000000/12/31/2002/376

copy only unique values
 
Copy column B into column A (if there is room), then apply
datafilteradvanced filter, select copy to another location and unique
records only

copy only unique values
 
Peo

Thanks for your quick response. My concern about cut and past is the
columns are very lenghty and I am trying to avoid unecessary manipulation.
Is there know formula that would allow this to be done from the 2 columns?
