ConfusedHello, I have excel 2008 on apple mac (no macro facility) I am looking for a formula to do the following, can anyone help? All of this data is situated in column C.I have a list of approx 100 products all different, I have parts of this product  this list repeated say 50 times throughout column C, so many duplicates. I want to first compile a list of all the unique products I have from this column. Then using my new unique list I would like to be able to change a product in the unique list which will automatically change all the same products within Column C.Now I have written it, it sounds not so complex but it has baffled me. Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance

Since Excel 2008 for Mac doesn't have VBA, the easitest way is to create a Pivot table from the data and put the product as a row field so that it shows a unique list only.  This list can then be copied into a new worksheet.

To update another column with the same data for each product, you can use a VLOOKUP function that matches the product text.
