Generate a list of combined columns

问题

I need to generate a list of possible outcomes given 5 unique rows of information. say A1=12, A2=34, then B1=Some, B2=sOme, B3=soMe, B4=somE, then C1=56, C2=78

you get the idea all with the final row being E and all the outcomes will be shown in row F

I just want to show unique outcomes, how could do I go this in either Google Sheets or Excel?

this is an expansion of a previously answered question here

For Excel

With data in columns A through E like:

Run this short VBA macro:

Sub Kombos()
    Dim N(1 To 5) As Long, i As Long
    Dim a As Long, b As Long, c As Long, d As Long, e As Long
    With Application.WorksheetFunction
        For i = 1 To 5
            N(i) = .CountA(Columns(i).Cells)
        Next i
    End With

    i = 1
    For a = 1 To N(1)
    For b = 1 To N(2)
    For c = 1 To N(3)
    For d = 1 To N(4)
    For e = 1 To N(5)
    Cells(i, 6).Value = Cells(a, 1) & Cells(b, 2) & Cells(c, 3) & Cells(d, 4) & Cells(e, 5)
    i = i + 1
    Next e
    Next d
    Next c
    Next b
    Next a
End Sub
