Dear All,
I am facing a problem with this formula I usually use this formula: =INDEX($B$2:$B$127,MATCH(0,COUNTIF($J$15:J15,$B$2:$B$127),0),1)
to extract non-duplicate items from a list, know that some cells are empty so it won't work
Your assistance in this subject is highly appreciated

Regards
 

Excel Facts

Last used cell?
Press Ctrl+End to move to what Excel thinks is the last used cell.
How about
Excel Formula:
=unique(filter($B$2:$B$127,$B$2:$B$127<>""))

It would have helped if you either said that, or amend you profile to show 2016 rather than 365.

How about
Excel Formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX(B:B,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW($B$2:$B$127)/($B$2:$B$127<>"")/(ISNA(MATCH($B$2:$B$127,J$15:J15,0))),1)),"")
