Hi

Is there any way to lookup the data showing in Column A2:A5000
(Manufacturer) and duplicate this in E2:E500 down but only show it
once i.e. do not allow repetition of the same manufacturer.

At the moment I am adding it manually once a new part number goes in
if the Manufacturer is not listed. Ideally as an when someone enters
or pastes a new part in Column E checks if it alreday has it and if
not adds it?

Any help appreciated....

Thanks

hmmm, can't seem to get this to work - it returns duplicates still in
the column although seems to filter some out - strange.

I'd almost be willing to bet that those apparent duplicates are not really
duplicates.

Check to see if there might not be perhaps trailing or leading spaces, or
... if it's imported data, maybe some invisible imbedded characters.
