Populate unique values into a VBA array from Excel
In this situation I always use code like this (just make sure delimeter you've chosen is not a part of search range)
Dim tmp As String
Dim arr() As String
If Not Selection Is Nothing Then
For Each cell In Selection
If (cell <> "") And (InStr(tmp, cell) = 0) Then
tmp = tmp & cell & "|"
End If
Next cell
End If
If Len(tmp) > 0 Then tmp = Left(tmp, Len(tmp) - 1)
arr = Split(tmp, "|")
Sub GetUniqueAndCount()
Dim d As Object, c As Range, k, tmp As String
Set d = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
For Each c In Selection
tmp = Trim(c.Value)
If Len(tmp) > 0 Then d(tmp) = d(tmp) + 1
Next c
For Each k In d.keys
Debug.Print k, d(k)
Next k
End Sub
