    Data Validation Duplicates

    Hi there, hoping someone can answer what is probably a very easy solution...

    I am using data validation to create a dropdown list, however my data list has duplications. Is there a way for the list not to show duplications?

    Re: Data Validation Duplicates

    make a pivot table based on the column (no duplicate values will be listed), and make the data validation based on the pivot table output.
