=sumproduct(1/countif(a1:a10,a1:a10&""))
if you want to exclude blank cells
=sumproduct((a1:a10<>"")/countif(a1:a10,a1:a10&"")) Hi hurshie ,
you can use the new Unique() function and wrap a CountA() around that.
=COUNTA(UNIQUE(B2:B11))

unfortunately, i do not have the Unique function tool as of yet. I guess my explination was not correct.
I need to find the total unique text and a count of location:
I know that there are 5 unique values but needs to break down like this.
Name Location Total Number of hursh Serv Serv ? hursh Serv NJ ? peanut nj MO ? Kevin nj Alex mo Henr mo Tom Serv peanut nj hursh Serv Henr mo - Jos_WoolleyIron Contributor
Array formula (CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER) in F2:
=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF(B$2:B$11=D2,MATCH(A$2:A$11,A$2:A$11,0)),ROW(A$2:A$11)-MIN(ROW(A$2:A$11))+1),1))
and copied down.
