    Avoiding Double Counting

    Dear All,

    I am trying to avoid double counting two separate rows with the same columns. For example:

    Stock Fund A Fund B Fund C Fund D Fund E Fund F Fund G Count Desired Count
    LKOH 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 4 4
    LKOH 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 4 2

    If I have two stock codes the same in column A (not necessarily one below the other), I only want to count one of the occurrences per fund. So I would like to avoid counting the duplicate records for funds C and D. The desired outcome for the total holdings of LKOH should be 6 and not 8.

    Any help as usual received with gratitude.

    Thanks,Steve.

    would a macro work for you?
