Removing Duplicates Help

[Scott]

I've got the following series of data (maximum of 4 data fields per group)

Cells A1:A4

White
Red
White
Blue

I want to produce a list in another column to pull those values minus
duplicates. This is something that I want to automatically calculate. The
text values in Cells A1:A4 are subject to change and are not constant, so, I
would want to automatically remove those duplicate values, and if there's a
change in A1:A4, it'll automatically update in B1:B4.

So my column should read

Cells B1:B3

White
Red
Blue

Does this involve an INDEX formula or what formula do I use to accomplish
this? Thanks!

Hi,
Try
=IF(COUNTIF($C$11:C11,C11)=1,C11,"")

Change the range to fit your needs

If this was helpful please click yes, thanks

Still isn't working. Any other ideas?

Still not returning any values. For our example, I'm testing on a blank
worksheet.

Cells A1:A4 contain:
White
Red
Blue
White

Starting in Cell B1:B4, I want to only list the unique entries. So I'd like
for B1:B4 to read:
White
Red
Blue

Notice B4 is left blank because of the duplicate "White" text value.

I tried the recommended formula, but am not returning ANY values what so
ever.

Hi Scott
try again I tested and it works only bring the colours once for your example
enter this in B1 and copy down
=IF(COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1)=1,A1,"")
