If you add an IF condition before that formula Wyn indicated, you can fastly remove duplicates.
C2: IF(countifs($A$1:A2;A2)>1;"";A2)
C3: IF(countifs($B$1:B2;B2)>1;"";B2)
Then you have let's say a "copy" of columns A and B in columns C and D with blank rows if there's a duplicate. Now you copy columns C and D and paste them as values (special paste) in another sheet or on other columns or on whatever colums you want; now you delete all other columns and sort datas by date or by name or whatever.
