    Return unique values but with blank cells between values

    Hi there

    I am using Google Sheets and want to return a set of unique values but with blank cells between the returned values.

    For instance:

    Column A
    - list of values

    Apple
    Banana
    Apple
    Pear
    Grape
    Apple
    Pear



    Column B
    - list of unique values with blank rows between

    Apple



    Banana



    Pear




    Grape

    ---


    I've tried UNIQUE with SPLIT but it doesn't work.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks
