I have a an excel sheet with:

  • in Col A: week numbers
  • in Col B: dates (timesheet entries)

I need to know the number of days worked for each week, so I need to the number of unique date entries per week number.

I found formula's (both array as non-array) that handle this for a fixed range, but I want to have the results in another column per week number.

So, the result of the added dataset below would be (the colon is just for clarity):

14: 2

15: 3

17: 6

20: 2

21: 3

If this is the source data:

14: 4/04/2012

14: 4/04/2012

15: 10/04/2012

15: 10/04/2012

15: 11/04/2012

17: 26/04/2012

17: 26/04/2012

17: 26/04/2012

17: 26/04/2012

17: 27/04/2012

17: 27/04/2012

20: 14/05/2012

20: 14/05/2012

21: 23/05/2012

21: 23/05/2012

21: 25/05/2012
