removing multiple items in an array

[Churchill]

I want to find a quick way of removing multiple instances of items in an array so that I get a distinct list of numbers.

I thought of using a loop but I wondered if there was a quicker way. Another way I thought of was to put it into a temporary table in a db, then use select distinct to pull them back out (this might be just as quick as looping?)

I'd like you're ideas please!
