Subject:      grabbing the unique variable from a data set
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hi all,
I am trying to work out a way to grab teh unique variables from a data
set
example if a data set contained:
bob
bob
bob
kill
bob
kill
eat
I would like it to return a dataset containing bob, kill, eat

NOTE: that the strings could be anything (unknown) it must simply just
return the unique variables of a column in a dataset.
Thankyou
Hugh
