Count number of textual values in a row
 

Hi everyone,

I am getting a little confused...infact...I am really struggling....

What I am trying to do is count the number of textual values in a row
(omitting any duplicates and counting them as one value)?

For example.

ABCD-1234
<<Blank Row
ABCD-1234
ABCD-1234
<<Blank Row
<<Blank Row
ABCD-1235
CB1234567
ABCD-1236
ABCD-1236

In the above example, I would expect the result to be 4.

Any help would be most appreciate, genuinely.

Thanks,
Steve (confused)
