Deleting All Duplicate Items In A List

Jul 24, 2007

I am a tax auditor, and I am working with excel and I have two lists. One is a complete list of items, both taxable and non-taxable, the other is a list of just non-taxable. I highlighted the non-taxable sales and copied and pasted them under the main list, and I want to delete all the non-taxable items. Basically, the only duplicates in my list are non-taxable, and I need to delete ALL of them.

Finding Duplicate Data And Deleting

Jan 27, 2014

Any way of finding particular data from a data set and deleting the data from that field without using conditional formatting or remove duplicates?

I have used a vlookup to find the words that I needed I now need to find where the are located in my original data set and delete these so I am left with data that if I perform a vlookup on it will not bring back any words as they will have been deleted.

Finding And Deleting Both Duplicate Rows

Aug 5, 2007

I deal with leads for a sales room and get sent over leads in bulk, I've created a master scrub list that I can attach to the end of a new lead file and sort by number to show which are duplicates.

When you do the: Data, Filter, Advanced Filter, select Unique Records, it hides the duplicate but what I need is not only for the duplicate to be hidden or gone but the row that it is a duplicate of, i.e. I need BOTH rows to go

Name-----number
Dave 555-1212
Dave 555-1212
John 536-2343
Smith 423-2312

needs to become

Name-----number
John 536-2343
Smith 423-2312

I would need a formula that figured out that Dave with number 555-1212 was a duplicate and delete BOTH rows,

Deleting Duplicate Sections Of Data

Sep 15, 2012

In my spreadsheet (27,000 + rows), there are sections (multiple rows) that are duplicates of other sections. A section is a header row followed by other rows of data.

The number of rows in each in section can vary from 5-20 – therefore, you cannot use the number of rows as a criteria.

However, each section has a header row that contains a four digit number. The following is an example of two such sections:

Basic -- Zero Line ==> Zero Line ID=7076 (submitted by Calvin Campbell)

Star Thru

Pass Thru

Trade By

Star Thru

one half Square Thru

[Code] ..........

As you will notice the header row contains an ID number. Every header contains “ID=” followed by the four digit ID number.

I need a macro that will identify the duplicate IDs and their sections and delete the duplicate rows of data.

I mention the following – which may or may not be useful.
- Not only are the header rows duplicates but the content of the entire section is duplicate
- There are no blank rows in the spreadsheet
- Entire rows may be deleted (not just specific cells)
- The data will be in Column A
- There’s only one duplicate of any given ID

There are a total of 2716 sections. It has been determined that 201 of them are duplicates. I can provide the 201 duplicate ID’s if needed.

Find Duplicate Items In Column?

May 31, 2012

I have two columns with aproximately 80,000 rows each lets say column A and D.

Column A has numbers and it is the most recent data extracted from a program. Column D has also numeric records most of which are also in column A.

I need a macro that will take each number in column D and compare it to column A when the macro finds that the number in D exists in column A it shoudl move the number on the same row on column B (right next to it)

If the number does not exist on on columna a It should start a list on column C.

Establishing Duplicate Entries - Highlighting Them Then Deleting

Apr 17, 2014

I have a spreadsheet with thousands rows of items on. I am trying to identify duplicate entries based on two or three cells within each row. If those two or three cells are duplicated for that particular ID then the duplicate entry (row) should be highlighted for deletion.

Better still it would be great if there was a macro or formula which would delete that duplicate row.

So for example on the spreadsheet I have attached, I would like rows 6 and 9 deleted or highlighted as the criteria for deletion is a duplication of the entry in the 'YEAR' column AND the 'VALUE' column for the REFERENCEs AB-1234 and AB-9876 which are the unique identifiers for each individual case.

This would leave the end result as per the table below on the attached spreadsheet.

Excel 2003 :: Deleting Duplicate Records

Jan 28, 2014

Any way of Deleting duplicate records, using Excel 2003.

The raw data is in the form of a text string. For example:

Vehicle 123456_F_AB 280
Vehicle 123456_R_AB 147

So when I do a count of these cells, I obtain a count of 2. '=Count(A1)'. How can I easily exclude 1 of the duplicates (123456). It needs to be a user friendly solution as other people may have to run this when I'm on leave?

Deleting Duplicate Rows When ALL Columns Are Identical

Aug 8, 2007

I found a useful resource on the web that gives a macro that deletes rows when the cells within a SINGLE column are identical. [url]

Does anyone know of a macro that can do more than that, one that will delete rows if ALL cells within ALL columns are identical?

For example, the macro should delete row 4 of the attached spreadsheet. It should leave row #2 there because it's the orginal row. But the duplicate row #4 should be deleted. The macro should leave row #5 there because not all columns are identical for that row.

Deleting Duplicate Rows :: Compare 2 Cells Per Row

Sep 22, 2008

I have a spreadsheet that I need to delete duplicate rows in. However, in order to determine if a row is a duplicate I need to check 2 cells per row. In the attached file you will see that each row has 4 cells. I need to compare the cells in columns B and C with the B and C cells of the Row beneath. If the B and C cells match then it is considered a duplicate and one of the rows needs to be deleted. Also, there may be multiple duplicate rows.

For an example see rows 17, 18 and 19. I only need 1 row to remain.

I am looking for a vb script that would analyze a file with thousands of rows and delete the duplicates.

Deleting Duplicate Cells (not Entire Rows)

Dec 17, 2007

I have a long list (over 1000 lines) of numbers, some of which are duplicated. Up to now I have been sorting them, adding in a simple check column to see if the number is a duplicate of the one below, and then manually deleting this cell.

Is there a better way to do this using VBA? The only way I have managed to find is by deleting the entire row, but I cannot do this as I have additional data to the right that I need to keep.

I also cannot install any add-ons as this on a work computer.

Formula To Calculate Duplicate Items With Criteria

Jan 17, 2007

I have a long list of work items based on a 7 digit number. The work item is referenced by a code named DS or WU.Example as below and the work item# has duplication throughout the list.(work item # repeated)

Work Item DS/WU
1234567 DS
1234568 WU
1234569 DS
1234562 DS
1234567 WU

I need to create a formula that counts how many duplications of work items, by the number of DS or WU. Based on the above example, the formula should arrive at the results below

Work Item #of Duplication DS WU

Creating A Unique List Of Items In Column A That Have A Corresponding Non-zero Value In Column B, I.e. Excluding All Items Where Sumif ColumnB Would Sum To 0

Jul 17, 2009

I know how to use array formulae to create a unique list, i.e.{=INDEX($G$1:$G$760,SMALL(IF(ROW($G$1:$G$760)=MATCH($G$1:$G$760,$G$1:$G$760,0),ROW($G$1:$G$760)),ROW()))}

however this is giving all the unique items from column G and I only want the unique items that have a non-zero value in column H as well. This would be the sumif of all instances that would have to be zero. I've tried to crack it and I've tried to search for solutions but so far no joy.

Deleting Duplicate Rows Based On Cell Values

Nov 28, 2013

I have a sheet with 45,000 rows. Let's say each row has 4 columns: Create_timestamp, Update_timestamp, email_address, and o_flag

Many rows have duplicate email addresses. I would like to remove all the duplicate rows, EXCEPT for the row with the most recent Update_timestamp.

And actually, if I could just "hide" all those rows, that would be even better, but I'd be happy just figuring out how to delete all the "old" rows, so I just have a list of unique email addresses, with their create/update timestamps and o_flag column. Seems like this is such a basic use case for "Remove Duplicates,",.

Identify Duplicate Lines Items And Generate Report.

Mar 11, 2009

I have a report with ~44,000 line items. From this report, I need assistance generating a report that lists all unique line items. I am having problems trying to identify which line items are duplicates as I need to compare 4 different cells in each line to other lines to determine if it is a duplicate item (compare data from columns A, B, E, F)

For example, raw data may be as follows:
Column AColumn B.Column E.....Column F
10/13/2008.11111111.71879W561000.888.88
10/13/2008.22222222.239103302000..222.22
10/13/2008.11111111.71879W561000.888.88
10/13/2008.33333333.353496508000..333.33
10/13/2008.44444444.239103302000..444.44
10/13/2008.11111111.71879W561000.888.88
10/13/2008 11111111.353496508000..888.88............................

Note from above, there are two occurrences of a duplicate item. As a result, the output table would only list this item once.

I have attached a sample of the spreadsheet with dummy data on one tab and the desired output on another tab. Note that all the data is broken up into blocks of data that is separated by data that is only in the first column of the row.

Adding Duplicate Items Cost Into Another Column Cell

Mar 18, 2012

I have a spreadsheet with data, such as the information below.

1001010600282214857901250,814.6173,606.81100110060028221495790
12436.9562.241004010600282215534026466,362.9789,980.59
10041006002822156340264116.4174.63100701060028221625436557
,084.6780,562.6210070606002822163543651,031.621,528.40

What I am trying to accomplish is adding the values in column E that have a matching value in Column D and placing the total value of that calculation in column F in the cell that holds the last value for the matching value in column D

This what I would like the data to look like.

1001010600282214857901250,814.6173,606.81100110060028221495790

084.6780,562.6210070606002822163543651,031.6258,116.291,528.40

As you can see I have added the values in coulmn E that have a matching (Value) in cloumn D and the result is placed in the cell next to were the matching value in column D is last seen before another value begins.

In my case there are sometimes hundreds of value 1, 10 of value 2 and 15 of value 3. Currently I have to pick the cell I want to place the total in, click the AutoSum button and select the matching values in Column D then hit enter to get my result.
