    Count Unique values from multile entries

    Hi All

    Was wondering if I could please get help with this tricky one..


    I need to count how unique vehicles have a specific colour, when they have multiple entries.
    Manually worked out answers in the attached.

    I don't get your expected results. Are these registration numbers correct, or should they all be the same?

    Hi AliGW

    The registrations are correct. WQB922 has multiple enrolment IDs (column A) in my ledger.

    OK - so how do you arrive at 1 for Indigo and 12999, then? Because E5 to E8 contains four different registration codes.

    Hi AliGW

    Indigo has a count of 1 because its the only REGO (WQB922) where "Indigo" is found. All other REGO's may have "indigo", however they also have different colours which remove them from the count.

    See post #2 - there are four: WQB922, WQB923, WQB924 and WQB925, hence my question.

    Many apologies, all of lines should be WQB922 - apologies for mucking about.

    This now makes sense - thanks. I'll have another look in a short while.
