I have a table of apartments in a new building.
I copied the "Type" column and pasted to a new column to delete the duplicates. I want a count to get a count of the unique Apartment types.
Duplicates are still in the new column. I can't figure out what I am missing. I changed the data type to text because the Unit Types include numbers and text and the occasional plus sign.

I apologize, this is my first post and I neglected to preview the post to see that column headers aren't showing.

Your text has space at the end see below
that's why similar text has different length
you can use TRIM function to remove extra spaces and then you can go ahead with removing duplicates
