I have some data which looks like this:
Excel 2010
<tbody>
</tbody>
The sum of circulation values above is 5000.
The unique circulation is 4000.
Notice that Newspaper_02 appears on three three rows, but the second row does not count because it has the same date (each row represents a newspaper article, on January 2nd Newspaper_02 had two articles. The circulation for the second article does not count because it occurred in the same issue as the first article.
I want to calculate the unique circulation with a single formula, if this is possible. If it is not possible I have other ways, but I would like to find out if there is a way of doing with a single formula.
Do any of you Excel geniuses out there see a way that this might be achieved? I would greatly appreciate any help with this. Cheers.
