Hi Experts,

I wanted to get a one column list out a range. So far have been able to extract a multicolumn list. But I want it to be one column list so that it could be filtered further for unique values.

Got kind of stuck somewhere.

Please help
Thanks in advance

Underneath is the formula I have used to extract data so far

=
Excel Formula:
LET(fMob,FILTER(Clients[[PMobile]:[sR2]],{1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0}),SORT(UNIQUE(fMob),,-1))
 

Excel Facts

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
Maybe:

Book1
ABCDEFGHI
1
2PmobileHeadingAHeadingBHeadingCHeadingDsR2Z
3ABCDEFX
4GHIJKLR
5MBAXKLP
6BCRPOZN
7BANANAM
8L
9J
10I
11G
12F
13D
14C
15B
16A
Sheet10
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
I2:I16I2=LET( t,Clients[#Data], r,ROWS(t), sel,{1,3,4,6}, c,COLUMNS(sel), s,SEQUENCE(r*c,,0), fMob,INDEX(t,MOD(s,r)+1,INDEX(sel,INT(s/r)+1)), SORT(UNIQUE(fMob),,-1) )
Dynamic array formulas.


Adapt the sel variable to include the columns you want.

How about
Excel Formula:
=SORT(UNIQUE(TOCOL(CHOOSECOLS(Clients[[PMobile]:[sR2]],1,4,7,10,13,16))),,-1)

Worked like charm. Thanks @Eric W

Hi

=SORT(UNIQUE(TOCOL(CHOOSECOLS(Clients[#Data];1;3;4;6);3));;-1)
Can't comment on the functionality as it didn't work on my system due to lack of some formula option.

Anyways Thanks for your help @ISY
