    Counting word in one column, but only once for each word in another column

    Hello,

    I want to be able to count cells in a column that have a specific word, but only once for each name in another column. Example below:

    Group 1 Yes
    Group 1 Yes
    Group 2 No
    Group 3 No

    The result should be
    Yes = 1
    No = 2


    Anyone know if this is possible?

    With an helpcolumn and an pivot table.

    See the attached file.
    Notice my main language is not English.
