These words and/or numbers may include:
- in column A: PRODUCTION, DEGRADE or DEPANNAGE
- in column B: CODE NUMBER in digits only
- in column C: VISSEUSE, CLE DEBRAYABLE or TOURNE-VIS
- in column D: P123456789, N987654321, Z000000000, P999999999, etc...
or empty cell

or empty cell
- in column F: MONTER..., SERRER..., VISSAGE..., FIXER..., etc...

    Hello,

    you detail 8 columns from A to H and you want to count the values only once in one column, WHICH ONE!

    an example of an array formula for a range column A
    example from A2 to A50

    =SUM(IF(A2:A50<>"",1/COUNTIF(A2:A50,A2:A50)))

    Be careful, an array formula is confirmed by simultaneously pressing 3 keys on the keyboard Ctrl, Shift, and Enter
    if you do it correctly, the formula will be enclosed in this kind of braces {}
