Hi There,

Challange:
I am currently using the following formula to count unique items inside of a database (as a columns).
=IF(COUNTIF($D$2:D2,D2)=1,1,0)
This gives me either 1 or 0 in return, I use this column in other calculations to show a base (n).

However I need this formula to act like a Subtotal formula, so when the database is filtered the calculation updates.

The database is very big so I need a way to do this without an array.
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
I need this formula to act like a Subtotal formula, so when the database is filtered the calculation updates.

can you explain this differently please

eg you have 100 rows and 75 are unique
