How do I count the unique Dates (Col B) for each project (Col A)? I'm expecting 6 for Project A and 2 for Project B (in the sample below).

I receive the following error message when using the formula in F2...

There's a problem with this formula:
Not trying to type a formula?
When the first character is equal (=) or minus (-) sign, Excel thinks it's a formula:
- you type: =1+1, cell shows 2
To get around this, type an apostrophe (') first:
- you type: '=1+1, cell shows: =1+1

I confirmed that I have the (=) and entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter. The Formula is highlighting the "" in the first IF statement.

....

F2: =SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF($B$2:$B$21<>"";IF($A$2:$A$21=E2;MATCH("~"&$B$2:$B$21;$B$2:$B$21&"";0)));ROW($B$2:$B$21)-ROW($B$2)+1);1))
And drag down

Insert formula with: Ctrl+Shift+Enter

Did you replace the ; (semi-colon) with a comma? This has to do with regional settings. In The Netherlands we use ; (semi-colon) as delimiter in formula's.
