Help printing string

Hi,

I have a file containing many times the word "IPaddress". and i need a command that finds that string or word and print it only once. I've tried the following but they print a line for each match:

Code:
grep "IPaddress" /directory/file.xml
find . | xargs grep 'IPaddress' -sl

i have many others but i get the same results.
