Problem

How do I get a list of all distinct values from a column of values? Basically, this question: How do I get the distinct/unique values in a column in Excel? but I need the answer for Open Office Calc instead of MS Excel. I'm using Open Office 3.2

Fix for: OpenOffice: get distinct values from column

Low Risk

I found a more simple way to do that: Select the whole column Data > Filter > Standard Filter Change 'Field Name' to -none- , click on 'More options' and check on 'No duplication' box That's it. You can copy and paste the filtered fields if you want contiguously numbered cells.
