Delete Duplicate Row Based On Unique ID In Column A
Feb 23, 2012
I have a set of data I'm trying to clean up. I'd like some code that would look at column A, and if a duplicate is found in A, delete the duplicates entire row. Column A contains a unique identifier code.
I am able to quite easily count the number of specific values in a cell after the table has been filtered. However, the problem I have run into is that some times the data needs to be placed into the spreadsheet twice (or to be more specific the same subject is associated with several unique data points).
What I need: some way to count the instance of some give value in column D only once based on the presence of a duplicate (unique) identifier in column C. However, when I filter the entire database, it must count *only* the filtered cells and not the hidden cells as well.
Picture: Column C Column D 111111 M 111111 M 111111 M
[Code]....
Currently calculates: M=9, F=2
Right now it incorrectly states there are 9 "M" from column D when it really should be 5 since 3 are duplicate values. My main difficulty is making sure this continues to work after I filter the entire sheet (say column ZZ) and have a bunch of hidden cells.
Equation currently using to count only filtered values (in this case "males" and "females"): ="M = " & SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(D3:D13,ROW(D3:D13)-MIN(ROW(D3:D13)),,1))*(D3:D13="M"))
creating a macro for an excel spreadsheet? The problem I am faced with is I need to reduce a xls file from a ticketing system at work that contains roughly 50,000 rows.
What I need to have done is reduce a Site Code column (column B) so that for each ticket entry there is only one occurrence of each user that worked on that ticket.What the macro should do is to look through column B and remove any duplicate rows for the same ticket number located in column A. once the macro gets to the next ticket number in column A I need it to start over on the duplicate check for column B.
I have a attached a xls file to this post to try and show what it is i am working on.
I have a excel file which contains dublicate rows. The duplicate rows can be identified based on few cell/column values. I need a macro to delete the duplicate rows when the below condition is satisfied: let us consider row 5 and row 6:
If column 7,12,13,16,17,18,19,23,24,27,28,29,30 in row 5 = row 6 then row 6 has to be deleted. This condition has to be followed for all other rows in the excel used range. Have attached the sample workbook.
I have a spreadsheet that lists employees and their certifications. If an employee has multiple, then they will show up on as many rows as they have certifications.
The macro I have merges them into one row with a line break, but only the first column's unique value has been merged while the other columns containing their own unique values are duplicated when I want them to show up only once. Example: Jane Doe shows up 2 times on the report. Her name should only show up once on the row, not 2 times with a line break.
Here is the code. I have also attached an example of what I need. Because the attachment is a simpler version of the actual report, is it possible to specify which rows have the unique values and which ones don't?
I have a sheet where i want to delete duplicate rows where column A and column B combined are equal, i.e. range(Ax:Bx) where x is the current row. I am using the macro below but cant seem to get it working as I keep getting a type mismatch error and Im not sure why.
I need to remove all rows where COL A value and COL B value are the same. COL C does not need to be considered. However I need to retain one of the Col C values for purposes of formatting.
The end result should look similar to columns F,G and H!
How do I delete duplicate rows in a sheet using a macro. When I say duplicate row, it is not based on a particular column but all the columns, so it is a true duplicate record.
I understand filtering will accomplish this but a macro would save time.
My data is in Column "B" that contains ID#. If there is a duplicate ID# in column B, delete the row, but keep one. In addition, I do not want to delete blank cells in Column "B" and non number data.
This is a sample of how my spreadsheet looks like. i want to check for duplicates under cell B:F. delete if duplicate. to like this: ( i know that in the second 4007 repair, there are some data similar to the first 4007 repair. but lets assume the data is different. Cause i cant change it now.)
cell A consist of my header and should not be shifted. i do not want a result like this,
The data should look like the original except the duplicates are deleted.
The macro should check until the row Period_name. that is anything after period name should not be deleted. Also i want Period_name row to be position under the leftover data. like this:
I have a column of data where duplicate records appear, can I get a macro to review the column and delete the duplicate record, I need the line item number to still show although the serial number has been deleted, please see example below-
line_number Serial_number 14FM12A1QWINC-1A 14FM12A1QWINC-1B 14FM12A1QWINC-1C 14FM12A1QWINC-1D 14FM12A1QWINC-1E 14FM12A1QWINC-1F 14FM12A1QWINC-1G 14FM12A1QWINC-1H 14FM12A1QWINC-1I 14FM12A1QWINC-1J 14FM12A1QWINC-1Jdelete serial number in column B, keep line number 1 in column A 24FM12A1QWINC-2A 24FM12A1QWINC-2B 24FM12A1QWINC-2C 24FM12A1QWINC-2D 24FM12A1QWINC-2E 24FM12A1QWINC-2Edelete serial number in column B, keep line number 2 in column A 34FM12A1QWINC-3A 34FM12A1QWINC-3Adelete serial number in column B, keep line number 3 in column A 44FM12A1QWINC-4A 44FM12A1QWINC-4Adelete serial number in column B, keep line number 4 in column A
I have a worksheet called 'DR manager and deceased' which is part of a larger workbook. It contains around 20000 entries. There should be at least 2 rows for each entry, identified by the customer erefrence in column H, however a casting a quick eye down the data shows me that there are several entries where there is only one row for a specific customer reference and I need to identify these. I need a macro that will remove the entire row from this worksheet and copy it to the 'unique' worksheet if the value in column H for that row is unique, ie only found once in the whole of column H.
I need to concatenate and de-dupe. I want to find dupes, concatenate a column, and the delete the duplicate columns--all while maintaining data from other populated columns.
Here is the some example data:
#| Type | Name 1 | A | Bob 1 | B | Bob 1 | C | Bob 2 | B | Sally 2 | E | Sally 3 | A | Bill 3 | C | Bill 4 | E | Nancy
The result should look like:
# | Type | Name 1 | A, B, C | Bob 2 | B, E | Sally 3 | A, C | Bill 4 | E | Nancy
with deleting duplicate entries in a spreadsheet that contains two names, a code number and a date. All rows with a duplicate number in column “B” should be deleted. Write a micro code? I have a few thousand of entries that need to be knocked out.
I've got this macro which works well, but I have to edit it to change the column I want to check for dupes. I don't mind doing that, but now I have to share the macro with someone who is not comfortable changing the references in the code every time they run it.
As it is it checks column G:G (7) for dupes and deletes the row. Good. I'd like for it to do the same thing, but for whatever column the active cell is in.
I can use this: Col = ActiveCell.Column in place of the "7" in the With Range part but I don't know how to replace the "G1:G".
Sub DeleteDuplicatesColumnG() With Application .ScreenUpdating = False .EnableEvents = False
I have some VB code, courtesy of OzGrid and Davc4, that works well to delete duplicate rows based on criteria in Column A of the active worksheet (albeit a bit slow on large files).
How do I modify the code below to evaluate duplicate data in Columns A through D? .....
See attached doc "Find and Delete.xlsx". Inside, the value in F12 is a very important cell. Using the text value from F12, I first want to use visual basic code to find the range in column B because it will vary. This means the 'text words' column might have 50 words or it might have 2000. I have racked my brain trying to find a universal way to find a variable range.
Then I would like to search for the exact text value within this range in column B. For example, in F12 is the text word 'windows xp registry cleaner' and you can see that this value is in B9. There will only be one exact match in column B.
I then would like the vb script to delete and remove this found value, then move left one space in column A to also delete the ID number associated with the text word. Then shift both rows up to fill the empty gap. I have tried numerous different codes but to be honest, I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. I've tinkered with find and replace, vlookup, match, find, search, and many more.
I'm new to VBA and macros, using Excel 2010, and am trying to figure out how to delete all duplicate rows in a sheet where 2 or less of their values in column A is "1". I'd like have a script that is flexible enough to change to 3 or less if need be. I also have a header row that needs to be offset in the process.
A---B- 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 1--123 <-delete based on this the value of column A 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 1--321 1--321 1--321 1--321 1--321
or
A---B- 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 1--123 <-delete 1--123 <-delete based on this the value of column A 0--123 <-delete 0--123 <-delete 1--321 1--321 1--321 1--321 1--321
Is there a macro to delete an entire row if a duplicate entry appears only in a certain column.
1. Look for the column header with the name "File Number" 2. Anytime the same number under the "File Number" column appears more than once in that column, keep the row that contains first occurrence of that number buy delete the entire row anytime that number is repeated in another row in that same column.
This is regardless of what is contained in the other columns. For example..let's say these cells contained this data...
In this case, I would want to keep rows 1, 2, and 3. But, I would want to delete rows 4 & 5 because the number "UTE00225" has already appeared first in B1. I'm using Excel 2003.
I am looking for a macro to look in Sheet 1 column A and compare the values to Sheet 2 column O. When it finds a duplicate I want it to delete the entire row in sheet 1. I dont want to have to manually sort anything if that's possible.
I want to do, is search column A for claim numbers that match. When I do have a matching claim number, I want to concatenate the original cells ownership field with the said matching cells ownership field (or move into a column in the same row, I can always concatenate later). Once that is complete, I want to delete the row I took the information out of.
I want to join this data in ArcGIS, but as of right now, it's not a 1-to-1 relationship, so only a relate works. That doesn't help me as I want to display claims by ownership, and this can vary per claim. Company A may have 100% on one claim, and then split another claim 50% with Company B.
This causes a double entry on the claim field in this current spreadsheet I have, which requires me to clean it up by making multiple columns of ownership vs. an additional row for shared ownership.
My problem:
Column A Column B 1235555 Company A (50%) 1235555 Company B (50%) 1235556 Company A (100%) 1235557 Company A (33%) 1235557 Company B (33%) 1235557 Company C (33%)
What I would like to see
Column A Column B Column C Column D 1235555 Company A (50%) Company B (50%) 1235556 Company A (100%) 1235557 Company A (33%) Company B (33%) Company C (33%)
I have a worksheet with Coulmn A and B , wherein , Column A has a list of values that can be duplicated. Based on the values in Column A, I want to fill corresponding cells in Column B. see the attached.
I have a worksheet that has 3 duplicate values in a particular column, I need a macros that will highlight two of the duplicates row and then another macro to delete the entire row. The duplicate element are in column R. find attached worksheet.
I have a spreadsheet with 3300 rows. In column A there is a list of company names and in column H there is a corresponding Sales Rep name.Column A has many duplicate company names. I would like to run a macro that will find the a company name and then delete all the rest of the rows that contain that same company name.
I have a list of data and I want to identify the unique entries for both columns but the second column has to unique to the unique values in the first column.
I have a worksheet with two columns and a few hundred lines. One has titles and the other integers indicating how many times the title needs to be copied to another worksheet or text file.
Desired Output (Worksheet or Text File) [The entire row, including the integer could be copied as well, if it is easier.] TitleA TitleB TitleB TitleB TitleB TitleB TitleB TitleC TitleC TitleC TitleC TitleD TitleD TitleD
I need a VBA/macro very similar to several I have seen posted here. I have a worksheet with two columns and a few hundred lines. One has titles and the other integers indicating how many times the title needs to be copied to another worksheet or text file.
