Hi all...
I need to be able to count unique items and overlook the duplicates....
I have a formula that can do that, but it is a rather intesive formula, so it takes for ever when you have 2000+ lines trying to calculate.
the formula I am currently using is
{=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF($A$5:$A$10000<>"", IF($D$5:$D$10000=P6,MATCH("~"&$A$5:$A$10000,$A$5:$A$10000&"",0))),ROW($A$5:$A$10000)-ROW($A$5)+1),1))}
closed with C+S+E
Any way this could be a lighter formula? or a differnt formula can do the same thing? I am leaning towards an Index/match formula but just not sure...
thanks,
JOE
