    With headers in Row 1, you can use Data|Filter|Advanced filter to show just the
    unique entries.

    Debra Dalgleish shows how:

    Do this based on just column A.

    Then you can select your range (all columns)
    edit|copy
    and edit|paste to a new location (a new sheet?)

    Only the visible cells should be copied|Pasted.
