    Dim i&, v: v = a
    With CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
        For i = 1 To UBound(v): .Item(v(i, col)) = 1: Next

'If you happen to have Office365, the above function can be shortened
'to make use of the Office365 worksheet function 'UNIQUE()' instead 
'of the dictionary:

Function DistinctVals(r As Range)
  DistinctVals = WorksheetFunction.Unique(r)
End Function
