Hello -

I have a list of data in columns A & B
A contains Names - 1000 rows, some repeating in variable amounts
B contains Dates

I want to have a macro that determines unique dates for each name. I'm getting stuck as the ranges are variable and not sure how to code this

Not wed to macro, if this is possible via functions i'd be more than happy

many thanks
Tom
