I think you'll have to loop. But don't build up an Array... you'd have to search the Array every time to determine whether that value has already been added. You should use an Object or Dictionary as a set.

Is there a quick and dirty way to do this? I could push to an array if the value doesn't already exist, however I did not know if there was a more efficient way to get these values. Example: <data> <projects name="Project A" /> <projects name="Project B" /> <projects name="Project C" /> <projects name="Project A" /> </data> Unique values would be: Project A, Project B, Project C Thanks for any and all replies.
