Comment:
On worksheet 1 - I have a 2 columns and several rows of data. Column A has product names that are repeated. On worksheet 2 I want Cell A3 to show a list of the product names from worksheet 1 - but I want only one occurrence of the product name. Example:
A (Worksheet 1) Coca Cola Sprite Coca Cola Ginger Sprite

Yes with a little effort.
Select your data in Column A. Go to: Data, Filter, Advanced Filter. Choose: Copy to another location Choose: Unique records only. Select a Copy To location somewhere onto Sheet1 Click Ok Then copy that data and paste it onto Sheet2 in A3 as desired.
This function will not allow copying to a location outside of the working sheet.

P.S. I am using Excel 97 and perhaps your version may allow copying to another sheet directly. At this moment I don't know if MS changed that ability or not.

Or run this code:
Sub ViewSingles() With Sheets(1) LastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row .Range("A1:A" & LastRow).Copy Destination:=Sheets(2).[A3] End With
With Sheets(2) LastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row For Rw = LastRow To 4 Step -1 If .Cells(Rw, "A") = .Cells(Rw, "A").Offset(-1, 0) Then .Cells(Rw, "A").Offset(-1, 0).EntireRow.Delete Next End With End Sub
