    populating list with unique values (revised)

    I posted earlier but omitted a critical detail. If i have multiple series of lists with repeating values, how do i create a list that automatically populates the list of unique values and totals them according to an attribute (month) of the series(s): see attached file
    thanks

    Your data will be much easier to work with if you separate Data Storage from Data Presentation.....

    With a structure like this:
    GAME.........DATE........PLAYER.........HITS
    Game1........1-Jan.......John.............1
    Game1........1-Jan.......James...........2
    Game1........1-Jan.......Tom.............1

    You can then....
    Create a Pivot Table that resembles the first view in your posted jpg

    And....you can use another Pivot Table to calculate the second view in that jpg. (Pivot Tables can group dates by month)

    Is that something you can work with?

    (Post back if you have more questions)
