    Function/Formula Help

    I have a running list in column B where new data/text can be entered.

    I want column D to read column B and if a new entry is made in column B to add it to the list in column D. In other words list the same items in D as there are in B without the duplicate entries.

    Column E needs to show the qty from column B and column F to show % of total

    Hopefully my attachment helps to shed more light than this ramble did. I didn't add formulas (except in column f- I think a counta formula is the way to go, if not please let me know) in hopes I could get the easiest method to use when new data gets entered into column b.

    Thanks in advance!

    This did explain my problem... I have no idea what to title the post because I'm not sure what to ask for.

    Not trying to be a problem, but when you don't know what you don't know how do you expect someone to ask the question?

    Would the word "assistance" be more appropriate than "help"?

    Try this: "How do I extract a list of unique values from a list with duplicate values?"

    You need to edit your opening post, go advanced and replace the original title, please.
