Delete Rows Based On Duplicates In X Columns
May 14, 2006I've been looking through various forums looking for a macro for a particular task, but I have not found something that works yet. Maybe someone could help me out? It's pretty straightforward situation.
I need a macro that removes an entire row when: information in column B and column C are both found in other rows ( duplicates).
I'm dealing with a worksheet with store record information ... Store Name (column B), Street Name (column C), State/Province, etc. I import new store records all the time and many are invalid because they share the same name and street address and therefore need to be removed. The ones that I’ve played with unfortunately end up deleting the cells only and not the entire row.
It's a tedious process to do manually remove entire rows (for duplicate column B&C) when dealing with thousands of rows and I would very much appreciate any assistance or insight into how simplify the process with a macro. I've attached a sample of what I'm working with.
Delete Entire Rows With Duplicates In Two Columns Only
Apr 20, 2012I need excel to delete entire rows if there are duplicates in two columns combined.
So, if I have this sample data (in reality I have a lot more columns)
1 Tr. ID Last Name First Name Sex
2 RBM_A Miller Johnny M
3 RBM_A Bayron Josephine F
4 RBM_A Jackson Reynaldo M
[Code] ........
I want excel to delete only row 9, not 11, 13 or 14.
So far, if I look for duplicates in both columns it marks duplicates in either one. Also if I delete the duplicates, it deletes them only in those two columns, leaving me with distorted data (in this example, row 14 would have no last or first name, but only the values "RBM_C" in column B and "F" in column E.
Delete Rows Based On Two Columns
Dec 22, 2006I have a spreadsheet that in column A has either the letters "C", "LP", or is blank.
In Column L it has either numbers 1 through 100, or the letter "D".
What I need it to do is to check and see if the data in column L is "D" and in the same row column A is blank, then delete that row.
Also, if the data in Column L is "D" and the Data in column A is either "C", or "LP", then I need it to change the "D" to "1".
It might be easier to do it separately because once you run the part that deletes the rows that don’t have a “C” or “LP” then I could probably just do one that says if column L = “D” then change to “1”.
Lets see if I can simplify this for you.
If Column L = “D” and Column A = BLANK then Delete Row
(this would delete all “D’s” that don’t have the “C” or “LP”)
THEN
If Column L = “D” then change to “1”
Delete Rows Based On Data From Two Columns?
Sep 21, 2012two things on the attached sheet.
First problem: in column B, I have a formula based on contents of column A. However, the limitations of 7 nested IFs leaves me with errors - I need 3 more IFs. Is there a way around that?
Second problem: I need to show the row of the first (earliest time in column A) and the last (latest hour in column A) record for each name. I've been sorting by name and time, then manually deleteing the rows I don't need. I know there's a better way, but I can't find it!

Jan 31, 2014I am a locksmith and attempting to write a spreadsheet app. for my line of work. The output page will use columns A-G and rows 1-?10000? depending on the size of the system. If a 5 pin system is requested then columns A+B will be blacked out. 6 pin system A is blacked out. 7 pin system nothing blacked out.

Delete Duplicates (18k Rows)
Dec 24, 2009I have a list of 18k rows, and about 7.5k are known duplicates. The delete duplicates button will not delete the duplicates (except it keeps returning 41 duplicates for an unknown reason, but there definitely thousands more it is missing). I tried the remove duplicates button, advance sort, coloring cells, and some macros. The list is the combination of two lists, one older one just compiled, I was able to seamlessly delete dups in another list.

Highlight Duplicates Based On 2 Columns
Oct 28, 2006I have a column of information, and I want to find out of there are duplicates in it without alphabetizing it. Where there is a duplicate (say E2=E5), I want to check the adjoining column to see if the value of those fields are duplicates as well (does F2=F5). So, what formula would I put in D2 to see if the value of E2 has an equal anywhere in column E, and if any duplicates are found (say E10,E33, and E43), to check if F10,F33 and F43 equal F2 (the value adjoining the cell that was searched for).

I do not need the duplicates deleted just highlighted or better yet maybe have them identified as "Duplicates" in an empty column (such as column H).

All Number Combinations From Entries In 7 Columns And 3 Rows With No Duplicates?
Dec 2, 2013I have 7 columns x 3 rows with unique numbers. I wish to determine every combination of the above numbers without repeats.
5
11
17
24
29
35
40
[Code] ........
Column 1 would only use column 1 numbers.
Column 2 would only use column 2 numbers...etc.
Also have the same for 5 rows of unique numbers.
I've been working on this for 10 years and this is the last step to finalizing the WINNING numbers.
Back checking using the 5 row technique I would have spent 10,000,000.00 playing over 8 years with a winners purse of 33,000,000.00
With the 3 row I would have spent close to 200k and won 2.5 mil.
Only problem is that I don't have the 10 to start with, the 200k is a maybe .
I need to be able to generate the combinations to play the numbers.
Indentify Duplicates In Table Based On X Columns
Nov 19, 2007I have a worksheet that contains thousands of patient appointment entries, there are more than one entry with the same patient details contained in the worksheet. For example; sometimes a patient will reschedule a appointment, this causes another entry to added for the new appointment. When the patient attends this appointment, the appointment status changes to Seen. But the original entry still stays Rescheduled. This there a way that we can look for identical infomation in some selected columns that match the original entry but have different infomation in some other columns:
E.G. The cells in columns A,B,C,H have identical infomation than the original entry but the cell text in column D equals to "Checked" or "Cancelled" and the cell date in column G is higher than the original entry date. If the result is true then tag the original entry as Invalid

How To Highlight Duplicates Based On Multiple Columns And Remove Them
Oct 8, 2011I am trying to tell the spreadsheet that if column G *and* column V are both identical to another row's column G and V, then the entire row is a duplicate and to highlight and delete it. I also want to record a macro of this process to apply to all spreadsheets.
Here are the tutorials I am looking at, but whatever I am doing is not working the way it is working for them.
Conditional Formatting, find duplicates with multiple columns [URL]...
I am highlighting cell A2, and under Conditional Formatting, I select "Formula Is" =SUM(COUNTIF($G:$G,G2),COUNTIF($V:$V,G2))>1
Then I select the format as light orange text, but it is only highlighting A2....
That is as far as I have gotten, and I still do not know how to go about deleting the duplicate entries. I have also read there are issues with recording a macro when trying to find duplicates using more than one column in the formula, but I have not gotten that far so I can't test it.
As is likely evident in my formula and process, I am not very experienced with Excel.
Moving Data From Rows To Columns And Delete Repeated Rows
Apr 16, 2014removing duplicate rows and move other data frm rows to columns.xlsx.
I am attaching a sample excel sheet showing what I need to do.In the first tab, I have a list that includes duplicate rows (first column only). I want to remove those duplicate rows but I don't want to lose the data in the following columns which can be unique or duplicates as well.
see the desired result tab in the sheet to get an idea of what I am looking for as the end result.
Keep in mind that the actual source file I am working with could have up to 50000 row, and the expected results could be around 2000 rows. So nothing can be done manually.
Conditionally Format Rows Based Duplicates Only Found In First Column?
Dec 6, 2013I'm trying to conditionally format rows of data based on duplicates in the first column, then filter the results. I have a table of data with mutiple variables assigned to different "headings" that looks a little something like this:
A
B
C
D
[Code]....
[selects the table, then GoTo Special selects the blanks, fills in the blanks with the cell above, then Copy and Pastes As Values the entire table again to fill everything in]
I’m stuck on how to input a formula into the conditional formatting window that will:
Format the text to white in columns A, B, and E based on there being a duplicate above that row in Column A only. i.e. conditionally format the values with a * below:
A
B
C
D
E
[Code]....
If I use the conditional formula I found: =A1=A2, then cell E3 gets made white text when I don’t want it to, hence the “referencing column A” part of the question (Column A is always a unique ID number whereas Column E can have a duplicate in the row above). [Edit: Why can't I type Enter or put a line break here... I'll try re-edit at home...] When I go to filter on Column C for YYY again, the conditional formatting needs to realise to un-white the text, which is my next headache because it means conditional formatting that acts relative to hidden rows as a result of a filter... Oh and did I mention the client wants this done in 2003? This is an afterthought though – as I can force them to use 2010 if need be

Y

IP/DA/SV
MC/SWL/SA

Instead, all I get are results with Y starting in MC, in this case the last row, all the other rows are deleted. I need to get all rows that have MC in three columns (Y, Z or AA) and delete the ones that do not. In this case, rows 3 & 4.
Below is the code I have been using:

With Range("Y1:AA1", Range("Y" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="*MC*"
.Offset(1).EntireRow.Delete
.AutoFilter
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Seems simple enough but this newbie chump is stumped why it is not reading the other columns
