How can I paste a unique values list?

I have a very big list contains a lot of repeated values and I want to get a
copy of the same list BUT only with unique values. For Example the column
Reg.No. includes the following Numbers:
1154
1168
1166
1154
908455
907558
1166
908455
1154
1166

List might have thousans of records. I want to get a copy of this list
without repeating any of the numbers included. { Uniqe value list }.

Thanks and regards.

You can add a header, select the range, do datafilteradvanced filter,
select copy to another location and unique records only

Hi,

You can do it by using the filter options in data menu. Just check this
steps out.

Go to data -- FILTER -- advanced filter -- Select copy to another
location -- select the list range - select the new location where data
should be copied -- Check Unique records and click on OK.

That should work.

C Ya.

If you want the unique list to be in another sheet be sure
to activate that sheet prior to using Peo's and Joham's
suggestion.

Say your list of values was in A1 to A1000.
In B1 enter
=A1
And in B2 enter this *array* formula:

=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(0,COUNTIF(B$1:B1,$A$1:$A$1000&"" ),0)),"",INDEX(IF(ISBLANK(
$A$1:$A$1000),"",$A$1:$A$1000),MATCH(0,COUNTIF(B$1 :B1,$A$1:$A$1000&""),0)))
--
Array formulas must be entered with CSE, Ctrl Shift Enter, instead of
the regular Enter, which will *automatically* enclose the formula in curly
brackets, which *cannot* be done manually.
You *must also* use CSE when revising the formula.

*After* the CSE entry, copy down until you get blank returns.

If your list is very large, this will slow you down somewhat!

Hi, JAK
You can use an Advanced Filter to extract a list of unique items in
your worksheet
Select a cell in the list
From the Data menu, choose Filter, Advanced Filter.
Choose 'Copy to another location'.
For the List range, select the column(s) from which you want to
extract the unique values.
Leave the Criteria Range blank.
Select a starting cell for the Copy to location.
Add a check mark to the Unique records only box.
Click OK. That's it!

If you want to find unique values between two Excel files then you
should use filord utility from www.filord.com

Peo;

I have a similar scenario. Also a long list, several repeated values, I want
to filter unique records. However, I have 4 columns of data! I want to filter
unique records based on column A, but I want to keep corresponding values
from all 4 columns together. For example:

A B C D
228-45615-91 LUBRICANT, SHMDZ, Grease 25gms.
228-45704-91 Y Y VALVE, SHMDZ, Inlet Check Valve
228-45705-91 Y Y VALVE, SHMDZ, Outlet Check Valve
228-45707-91 Y Y FILTER, SHMDZ, SUCTION FILTER SS
228-45707-91 FILTER, SHMDZ, FOR SOLVENT
228-45708-91 Y Y FILTER, SHMDZ, SUCTION FILTER

I've tried the same method under datafilteradvance filter but I'm having
problems. Your thoughts? Is the a criteria range value i can input to do this?

thanks

Don:

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not sure what your response means, is it a
macro or a sub-routine. I'm not fluent with either, could you brak it down to
laymans terms a little more?

thanks
