    Hello Chandoo,

    I've just found another tip which is powerful in 2007.

    Go to Data / Sort and Filter area -> Advanced... /

    There is a checkbox "Extract without duplicate" in the dialog.
    You can extract the list wihtout duplicate in another sheet (awesome for creating reference list for data validation)
