Delete Duplicates With Macro Keeping Only Newest By Date
Feb 14, 2011
I have a spreedsheet with 17,000 rows in it. In column D I have ID numbers and in column B I have the dates. There are multiple entries for each ID in column D which gives multiples dates each entry was given in column B. I need a VBA Macro that will identify duplicate entries in Column D and keep only the most recent entry by date in column B.
I have a pretty good size file here where I need to remove duplicated date BUT keep only the Newest Record.
What is Needed is to look at "test Group Identification" and compare it to "Actual Start Time" and keep only the Newest Record and remove any Exact Duplicated data
See example of Data.

I am doing a bit of data spring cleaning... I need some VBA that will look at column FT for duplicates. I want it then to keep only the most recent one, so it would delete the others rows completely. Column B contains a date and time. When removing the items it should make a copy of them to the sheet Delete Log.
I have a database with ~18000 rows and 29 columns. I would like to filter the data by duplicates in one column, based on total, but keep the remaining data in the row. For example: I have account numbers listed in one column, often duplicates. I can get the total in a pivot table no problem, but need the other data associated with that account. I do not need to see all accounts, only duplicates for accounts listed say greater than 5 times. The data in columns B+ are important.
I have a HUGE vlookup I created to paste in the pivot table data (account numbers and totals) to run a look-up based on those numbers, but I see that running into problems when you run 4k+ look-ups.
I want to see accounts listed only 5+ times, include that total (as in a pivot table) and the remaining 28 columns. I have tried to run this in a pivot table completely, but still too much data to process (plus all the subtotals that I have to keep removing).
I want to sort a column in Excel 2007 which is having dates. Normally, we use oldest to newest or newest to oldest option in sort & filter. But i am unable to find this option in my excel sheet. how can I find this option in Sort & Filter.
Note: I have imported this data column from Access 2007
I want to seach and select the newest date in a column. There are green, red and black fonts in the column. I only want to only seach the cells with black fonts.
I have a macro at work that shows which files are duplicates (same name plus file size) it then produces a list of this with 3 fields file path(excluding file), file name and ext, and size. it produces a duplicate of the file for example:
file a file a file b file b
i would like a macro to delete just 1 of theese (as deleteing both would be bad!! haha) and have no idea how to start this. other than going through all 1679 files that have a duplicate.
In the included workbook I've got a sheet that needs to be updated every time a userform is completed. So I intend to run a macro after the data is entered to find duplicates, and delete the older row.
so, column A must match then column C must match then look in columns AK & AL to find the newest entry to keep. I also need to delete any rows where column A is empty(light Green), no matter what other columns have data.
In my example sheet all the yellow's match for column A but the bright yellow's are the only "keepers", because one has a different number in "C" and the other is the newest.
Also remember that this is just part of a much bigger, multi-sheet book so I will need to I.D. this sheet in the code.
I have a macro that delete empty cells in a column, what i wanted to do is while deleting the empty cells is that the macro will also delete duplicates in ENTIRE WORKSHEETS. My file has so many sheets so i need a macro that run or loop on my entire worksheets.
This is my code. that only runs in a single sheet.
Code:
Sub deleteblanks() Columns("H").SpecialCells(xlBlanks).Delete (xlUp) End Sub
Looking for a macro to find and delete all duplicates and keep only unique values from a column. For example column AS has ACLU0403598 ACLU0403598 ACLU0403598 ACLU0406600 ACLU5165518 ACLU0406581 ACLU0406581
All red items need to be removed and keep only green items. Would also like the entire row the duplicates are in to be deleted.
I need it to clear the contents from the cells, then copy a number of sets of cells from selector, paste them in to AM call plan and then delete the duplicates. My code is getting stuck very early in the whole thing. The copy, paste sequences, were originally recorded as a macro, then added to trying to get it to work.
Here is the code, and the red line of code is where it is stopping:
Sub Call_Plan_Targets() ' ' Call_Plan_Targets Macro ' Dim LR As Long Application.ScreenUpdating = False LR = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
I need to sort my data by the oldest date first in colum L (NEED_DATE), but I need to keep the rows grouped by colum A (Material No). See example of data.
Material No Tool No Prodn Ordr No Curr Oper No Curr Workcenter Cd Next Oper No Next Workcenter Cd
I am going to record a macro to clean up a report but the first thing I need to do is delete rows that contain dates before July 17, 2012. The dates are in column B. Is this possible in the macro?
I have a column with dates and times, and an associated column with data for all the dates and times. I want to add every hour of every day to the date/time column, but want the data associated with the times to stay in the row next to the correct time. How would I do this? In the attached file, i want to make coulmns A and B look like Coulnds E and F. I have hundreds (if not thousands) of rows, so i need a way to do this easily. Also, the times are not all evenly spaced or exactly on the hour. I dont need the times to be exactly on the hour or spaced out evenly, but i would like to have at least one time from every hour.
I generate a report in excel of about 63000 rows (this differs) there are several columns with dates, I wish to remove all the rows with a date before and after certain dates.
It seems I would need a loop for that, but it is unclear to me how this works, so far I have this:
Sub TestMacro2() Columns("D:E").Select Selection.NumberFormat = "m/d/yyyy" Columns("L:M").Select Selection.NumberFormat = "m/d/yyyy" Rows("2:2").Select ActiveWindow.FreezePanes = True Rows("1:1").Select Selection.AutoFilter Range("$D").Select For Each cell In Selection If Date < 1 - 3 - 2009 Or Date > 2 - 3 - 2010 Then cell.EntireRow.Delete shift:=xlUp End If Range("$D").Select Next cell End End Sub
I have a string of numbers and characters and I have a Macro that I copy-pasted from somewhere online that REMOVES any character that is not a number.
Is a great Macro that transforms: "-a209 03 . 1 - 22 46" to 2090312246 I can send the code on request.
However the problem comes when running the macro into that string excel transforms it DIRECTLY into a Numeric. That is we are missing the first two, or first characters when they are zeros.
For example: "007 01 1.32.08" becomes 70113208 in stead of: 0070113208
And this is a problem.
I have tried to define the cell as text before running the macro. Fails. I have tried to re-define the cell afterwards as text but the zeros do not appear. Fails.
Including in the Macro a last minute section that forces the cell to remain as text...(seems easy! but I have do not know how to program in VBA)
I am trying to adapt a macro which deletes all rows in Worksheet 1 where the date in column K differs from a date in Worksheet 2. The date in Worksheet 2 will change each day.
I think the macro below could be used, but don't understand how to replace the "Value = ":70:" with a reference to the master date in Worksheet 2.
Sub test() Dim lr As Long, i As Long lr = Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row For i = lr To 1 Step -1 If Cells(lr, 1).Value = ":70:" Then Cells(lr, 1).EntireRow.Delete End If lr = lr - 1 Next i End Sub
I've attached a test excel to this post. Column C contains several identical email addresses. I need ALL the rows containing the duplicate data removed, not leaving one remaining as Remove Duplicate Values normally does.
I'm going to be doing this with many Excels all with differing amounts of data surrounding column C. I need a reliable way to achieve this, regardless of how many extra data columns exist. If there is a duplicate of data in column C, all rows containing that data need to go, regardless of what other data may also be present in those rows.
I'm new to this and trying to write my own code (quit satisfying actually), I realise there's a lot of threads on duplicates but I couldn't really solve my problem. My code looks like the following
Private Sub Dubletter_Click()
Dim i As Long, lastrow As Long Dim cell As range
For Each cell In Sheets("LR").range(Cells(3, 2), Cells(Rows.Count, 2)) lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(x1Up).Row For i = lastrow To 3 Step -1 If Cells(r, 2).Value = cell Then cell.EntireRow.Delete .....................
I want to create a macro that will look at different account numbers and delete those rows that have a sum of zero for that same account number. In other words, I am working with an accounting spreadsheet which shows both accounts payable and receivable. When payment is received for an account, I would like the macro to delete it, leaving only outstanding accounts. For instance: ....
I have the following Macro that I run assigned to a Button.
Sub AskAndDo() If MsgBox("Have you Finished collecting data ?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion) = vbNo Then Exit Sub Else If MsgBox("Have you Printed the Reports ?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion) = vbNo Then Exit Sub Else ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="\gamingntcompanyFLOAT MASTERFloat_Sheet_" & Format(Date, "_YY_MM_DD") End If End If Application.Quit End Sub.......
how to Delete Duplicates in Column D with a macro. It would search all of Column D and look for Duplicates and if it finds an exact value match it will delete one of the rows containing the duplicates. This is running in between a much longer macro which is the reason why I can't do it with conditional formatting.
