Q#1: what is Dupes? Q#2: In this sheet i found 9 unique names but the formula is showing only 5 names why? Q#3: When i remove any name from column A it returns #N/A rather than result in all cell (where formula is putted) Q#4: how can i get all unique names and also if i remove any name from the list answer formula should work same...

Kamram2, I believe I did see the sheet properly. You have 5 names that are listed multiple times or have duplicate listings. The other 4 names only appear 1 time each in your list (Lisa, Sue, Paul, Sam).

Yes you are right but it should have count 9 name rather than 5...

No, the correct count is 5.

That formula is counting how many names are duplicated. It's not counting the unique names.

No, the correct count is 5.

Okay! you are right Sir but what i want is that the formula count only unique names...

Okay! you are right Sir but what i want is that the formula count only unique names...

You are given both (see my post)...

Unique count of items whatever their frequency of occurrence in the target range;

and

Unique count of items with a frequency of occurrence > 1 (so-called dupes).

See reply #7:

I posted a formula to count only the unique entries and one to extract those unique entries.

I can post a sample file if you'd like.

Enter this formula in C2. This will return the count of unique records.

=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A20<>"")/COUNTIF(A2:A20,A2:A20&""))

Enter this array formula** in D2:

=IF(ROWS(D$2:D2)>C$2,"",INDEX(A$2:A$20,SMALL(IF(A$2:A$20<>"",IF(MATCH(A$2:A$20,A$2:A$20,0)=ROW(A$2:A$20)-ROW(A$2)+1,ROW(A$2:A$20)-ROW(A$2)+1)),ROWS(D$2:D2))))

Copy down until you get blanks.

** array formulas need to be entered using the key
combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER).
Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT key
then hit ENTER.

Thank you Sir

You're welcome!
