Formulate a list

I have a very large data base and need to condense it to a smaller format.

Currently, there is a list of people, and each person has a corresponding number (not shown in sample). Some names are listed more than once. I need to get to where I can sort the large data by either the names or numbers of the people, and then create the smaller sheet where each name is only listed once.

I know this is possible because I have done this before. I just wasn't able to save the file.

I have attached a simple sample spreadsheet, so if anyone who has an idea of how to do this wouldn't mind looking at it a bit, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Jay Coulter
