Hi guys
How do I use a D function to get number of unique items.. I'll illustrate below
Name
AAA
AAA
BBB
BBB
CCC

So the DCOUNTA formula returns 3
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple

You could appy Advanced Filter to your data and apply COUNTA to the filtered list.

A formula-based approach would be:

=IF(LEN(A2:A6),SUMPRODUCT(1/(COUNTIF(A2:A6,A2:A6)))

Well, I am planning to write the formulas using VBA, because I will need to write it for 20 sheets, everyday. Any good method to do this??
