    Select: copy to another location

    List Range: A1:A10

    Copy to: B1

    Select Unique Records Only

    There are VBA solutions... if you googles something like Unique Values & Excel

    There is also a free addin that has a formula to do it....

    If you download and install Morefunc.xll from here: http://xcell05.free.fr/morefunc/english/ you can use the Uniquevalues() function.

    Simple select the range in column A you can go beyond A10 even if there are blanks that might be filled in later.

    Then select a range in column B that will surely return all unique values... say B1:B10

    Then in the formula bar enter something like: =UNIQUEVALUES(A1:A100,1) where A1:A100 is your range of interest. Then hold the CTRL and SHIFT keys down and hit ENTER... a list should populate in column B

    Your post does not comply with Rule 8 of our Forum Rules. Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. You\'ll find people are disinclined to respond to cross-posts because they may be wasting their time solving a problem that has been solved elsewhere. We prefer that you not cross-post at all, but if you do (and it\'s unlikely to go unnoticed), you MUST provide a link (copy the url from the address bar in your browser)to the cross-post. Expect cross-posts without a link to be closed a message will be posted by the moderator explaining why. We are here to help so help us help you!
