I have a column of names that i need to count; however, I only want to count the total number of different names that appear. In other words, if james appears 5 times in my column, i only want him to count once. How would i set up the countif statement?

Here is the formula
=SUMPRODUCT(--(data<>""),1/COUNTIF(data,data&""))
replace 'data' by the range (such as A1:A100)
or name that range as "data"
best wishes
