    Duplication issue when filtering unique records

    Whenever I use the Advanced Filter to extract the individual records into another column (Advanced Filter, Copy to another Location, Unique records only), the first record is always duplicated:

    Original list Filtered List
    1 1
    2 2
    3 3
    1 1
    2 4
    3
    4

    As you can see "1" is duplicated - how can I stop this from happening?

    I think the 1 in this case is the header, try inserting a header row before you Auto-filter.

    Thanks Bryan,

    You were spot on, I inserted a header and all works fine.

    Cheers,

    Grant.
