    B
    C
    1
    Data
    ------
    Uniques
    2
    1119
    1119
    3
    1119
    1118
    4
    1119
    1114
    5
    1119
    1115
    6
    1118
    7
    1118
    8
    1114
    9
    1114
    10
    1115
    11
    1115
    12


    This array formula** entered in C2:

    =IFERROR(INDEX(A$2:A$11,MATCH(0,COUNTIF(C$1:C1,A$2:A$11),0)),"")

    ** array formulas need to be entered using the key
    combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER).
    Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT key
    then hit ENTER.

    Copy down until you get blanks.

    L1 =if(countif($K$1:K1,$K1)=1,"unique","") and drag down.

    After that just filter on unique.
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.
