Extracting a list of non-duplicates
Posted by Michael J. on January 28, 2002 1:45 PM
I have a list of items (e.g. apple, orange, apple, banana, apple, orange, peach).
I want to provide the range of my list and get back what type of fruit is in the list, with the type of fruit only appearing once (e.g. apple, orange, banana, peach).
How do I do this?

Highlight your list, and use the Data Advanced Filter command, checking the unique records only box.

as below, but check the "copy to new location" box and provide a cell to copy it to...... this will paste those unique values to the cell you specify, rather than actually filtering the original range (assuming that's what you wanted !)
