Why don't you write a user-defined function in VBA ?  Shouldn't be too hard 
- of the order of "one weekend plus a decent supply of coffee" 
hard.  Google for
        excel user-defined function vba
and you'll get a lot of pointers to get started.

Here’s another tough thing to do in Excel (for me at least) that perhaps 
someone knows how to address. I’m loading transactions (trades) into 
excel and I’d like to build a column of unique symbol names, and sort 
them. I tried the unique filter feature; but that doesn’t seem to be 
reliable. It allows a few duplicates. I’ve tested that at some length.

A function like this would be good (Mr. Gates) ☺.

=unique(range1, range2, sort –a).

Any suggestions how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
