Unique Value Nightmare!

Hi All! I am having trouble with formulas. One formula i have wont work, and I need a creative formula.

Columns A and B: I have a long list of values, some will be repeated up to three times, some wont be repeated at all. The number of values in the list will vary every tie I use the spreadsheet, so I have chosen formula to look up to cell A99. I need to create a new column of just the unique values. This formula I am having trouble with. See below.

Column C: After I get the unique values, then I need to put them in ascending order. (I have this figured out)

Column D: NEED FORMULA: I need a new column with two rows in between the ascending values. I have no clue how to do this part.

Column A:

17091780-02A
17091555-01A
17091555-01A
17091555-01A
17091555-01ADUP
17091555-01ADUP
17091555-02A
17091555-02A
17091559-01A
17091559-01A
17091559-02A
17091559-02A
17091559-02A

Column B:
17091780-02A
17091555-01A
17091555-01ADUP
17091555-02A
17091559-01A
17091559-02A
Formula used as an array: B2=
=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$99,MATCH(SMALL(NOT($A$2:$A$99="")*IF(ISNUMBER($A$2:$A$99),COUNTIF($A$2:$A$99,"<="&$A$2:$A$99),COUNTIF($A$2:$A$99,"<="&$A$2:$A$99)+SUM(--ISNUMBER($A$2:$A$99))),ROWS($A$2:A2)+SUM(--ISBLANK($A$2:$A$99))),NOT($A$2:$A$99="")*IF(ISNUMBER($A$2:$A$99),COUNTIF($A$2:$A$99,"<="&$A$2:$A$99),COUNTIF($A$2:$A$99,"<="&$A$2:$A$99)+SUM(--ISNUMBER($A$2:$A$99))),0)),"")Trouble with the formula: it is not returning the first value from column a "17091780-01A". I am not sure if this because it is already a unique value or if there is a error in the formula.




Column C:
17091555-01A
17091555-01ADUP
17091555-02A
17091559-01A
17091559-02A
17091780-02A

Final Column:
17091555-01A


17091555-01ADUP


17091555-02A


17091559-01A
(And so on...)

I know this is a lengthy question, but I hope someone will be able to step to the challenge ;)

I am creating a template for others to use. I am trying to make it as simple as possible (just copying in the raw data), without the use of Macros. Is this possible in a formula?

Hi,

I agree with Mumps that a VBA solution is probably better (and nice to see some of my code is still being referenced! :)). But yes, you can do this with just formulas. For example:

I didn't really try to decipher your B2 formula, instead I used one of the several other versions I know. In C2, I used another formula to create a sorted unique list. It doesn't use column B at all, so you could remove that if you want. Then in D2 is your list with the blank rows inserted. Or if you prefer, you can even use the formula in E2 that only needs column A to work. I assume that you left the blank rows to put something else in there. The formulas should still work as long as whatever you put in the blank rows aren't anything from column A.

Hope there's something useful in there for you!

Sorry i missed you do want column D (Final column)

You have a bunch of formula solutions to sift through, but if you are up for a macro solution, here is another one that you can consider (this does the sorting as well as finding the unique entries)...
Code:
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Sub Uniques()
  Dim R As Long, C As Long, X As Long, Data As Variant
  Data = Range("A1", Columns("B").Find("*", , xlValues, , xlRows, xlPrevious))
  Columns("C:D").Clear
  With CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
    For R = 1 To UBound(Data, 1)
      For C = 1 To UBound(Data, 2)
        If Len(Data(R, 1)) Then .Item(Data(R, C)) = 1
      Next
    Next
    Data = .Keys
  End With
  With CreateObject("System.Collections.ArrayList")
    For R = 0 To UBound(Data)
      .Add Data(R)
    Next
   .Sort
    Range("C1").Resize(.Count) = Application.Transpose(.ToArray)
    Range("D1").Resize(3 * .Count - 2) = Application.Transpose(Split(Join(.ToArray, Space(3))))
  End With
End Sub[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

With what i am creating, I have to keep a template.
You seem very knowledgeable! Do you have a quick formula solution to go from Column A to Column B:
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Column A[/TD]
[TD]Column B[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]a
[/TD]
[TD]a[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]a[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]b[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]b[/TD]
[TD]b[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]c[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]c[/TD]

[/TR]

Do you want to use this on column D of your previous request? If so, I could probably come up with a formula that creates this directly. But if you want column D, plus this one, it's probably best to use this formula. You don't really want 2 sets of array formulas if you can get by with just one set.

And of course if this is an unrelated question, then this should work fine by itself.
