    Listing unique text cells

    I am looking for a way for the text cells in Col.A to be listed in B2 ignoring any duplicates

    In column A there will be a number of words and I want to list each one once in B2

    e.g.


    A1 "word one"
    A2 "word one"
    A3 "word two"
    A4 "word two"
    A5 "word two"
    A6 word two

    B2: "Word One", "Word Two", Word Two

    Thanks

    The number of words per cell and number of rows will differ each time depending on what I need to search for and how many results there are

    Thanks

    see the udf in post #12 here
    http://www.excelforum.com/excel-form...ue-values.html
    use as
    =TRIM(ConcatUniq(a1:300,","))
    it may look like you cant see all the text but if you make the cell mush bigger you should see it all
    or copy paste into notepad
