    Data Validation list

    Hello,

    I have a list from daily inserted data, however there is repeats in my data. Therefore my list has GS, GS, GS, AV, AV, BT, UV. Is there a way that I could delete the repeats, since they show the correct information and are the same value. (in order to make my list shorter)

    Yes. Which version of Excel are you using? You need to update your profile so that we can tailor our solutions. Your Windows version is not of very much use to us.

    Thanks - please update your user profile.

    Can you provide a sample workbook? I would do this with PowerQuery, to create my validation list source.

    Merged cells are a nightmare, but if we need to work with them, please provide a sample workbook with merged cells. Thanks.

    Merged cells, regardless will still show the cells in the same value as attached.
