Eliminate Duplicates On A 1 For 1 Basis
Feb 20, 2009
I have a huge list of accruals and payments. Accruals (positive) are entered, and at a later date are offset by the payments (negative). Im trying to make a schedule so i can determine which are left over.
This is easy to do manually for a small amount of rows. However im dealing with 5000 rows and i do not want to manually match it would take many days to do.
Ive tried a duplicate remover. To get it to work i made an absolute value column for the negatives, and compared it to the positives column to find the duplicates. This works to a point. However, If i have three accruals for 100, and one payment for 100, all are identified as duplicates which obviously is not what im looking for.
I need to get it where one accrual is matched to one payment. if there are 3 accruals, 2 payments, 1 is not a duplicate. if there is 3 accruals, 1 payment, 2 are not duplicates.

I have a list of serial numbers. There are many groups of 8 same serial numbers, where group consists of 2 projects with 4 SN per project (because of 4 different events). I want to create a formula that marks one project with 4 out of 8 SN for deletion based on set of 3 dates assigned to them. In short I need to count 4 rows per project as one unit.
Serial
Project
Event description
Date1
Date2
Date3
Here is a list on what information matters when making decision if to mark project for deletion or not.
1. Project1 has no Dates entered compared to Project2. Mark Pr1
2. Project1 and Project2 has no Dates entered. Mark Pr1 (random, does not matter which should be removed)
3. Project1 has 2009 Dates, Project2 has 2011 Dates. Mark Pr1 because dates are older
4. Project1 has less Date entries filled than Project2 (same year). Mark Pr1 because less Date fields entered.
I can somewhat do it for separate rows, how I can make these rules apply for whole project as one unit related only to one SN at a time. Biggest problem is there is no pattern of dates entered. Sometimes one row can be filled another missing out info and etc.

I tried to search back through old threads and could not find the answer, so this is what I am trying to do.
I would like to eliminate the duplicate items within a particular cell and alphabetize the remaining items.
For example,
Currently:
South Atlantic, East South Central, South Atlantic, Pacific, Mountain, New England, East South Central,
Wanted result:
East South Central, Mountain, New England, Pacific, South Atlantic,
I’d do it manually, but at current rate, it looks like it will take me about 86 hours

I am attaching a file with an example of a spreadsheet that I am trying to sort out. In this example I have 3 samples (I could have many more). Each sample has 8 columns associated with it (N, M, I, F, S, MS, KM and KD). The length of the dataset is different for each sample. The MS column is the same as M but contains a few zeroes. What I am trying to do is:
1) generate one column (MSA) containing only unique values (no zeroes) from columns MS1, MS2 and MS3. The unique values should be selected within a specified tolerance (for example, 0.001, which makes 52.00706 from MS1 and 52.00701 from MS2 duplicate values although they are not exactly the same)
2) generate 3 columns ( named SS1, SS2 and SS3) with sorted columns S1, S2, and S3 so that for each value of MS in column MSA each of the three columns will list the corresponding value of S1, S2 and S3 (zero if there is no corresponding value)

Hello, I am trying to update a person's finances for this past year. She sent me a workbook that has two sheets with macros. The first sheet is linked to the 2nd. When a name and number is typed into the first sheet it automatically shows up on the 2nd.
My problem is, no matter what number I change on the first sheet under amount, the Total cell on the 2nd sheet gives me the #Value error. I have not changed anything, have not deleted any formulas but no matter what I do, that value error always shows up. I know very little about excel but I thought I knew enough to be able to update this book for her. Is there a special way I should be inputting the numbers on the first sheet so that the value error will show the running total instead of an error?

One of the multitude of areas where I still need drastic improvement is with efficiency. Specifically, avoiding loops.
Are any of you aware of any good, basic level sites, blogs, posts, etc., about better methods or processes? I'm not particularly experienced with programming (I've been a software TESTER for 13 years and just started some programming in recent months), so the more basic the better.

I have a spreadsheet with data in all different rows.
I'm trying to delete all the blank cells in between.
I tried go to special, blank, and delete cells,
but for some reason, the excel doesn't select all the blank cells.
It only selects a few blank cells, which is really strange.

I have a table of data like this:
A , 1 , 1
B , 2 , 1
C , 3 , 4
D , 1 , 3
E , 3 , 3
I need to eliminate duplicate entries WITHIN a row. So, I need the table to become:
A , 1
B , 2 , 1
C , 3 , 4
D , 1 , 3
E , 3
Is there an easy way to do this for a large sample? Also, there are actually more like 8 columns of this data, if thats important.

I'm trying to write a macro that will loop to the end of each row, if the last cell is a number it will cut and paste that whole row into another sheet, if the last cell is a word then it will leave it as it is.

I am using the formula below to count the unique items in column M. Two questions, how can I use the whole range M:M, but then also ignore the header because that would return 3. I tried repacing M2:M6 with M:M but I get #NUM!. I'm using 2003 but when I take this back to work I will be on 2007. If using the whole range M:M is not possible then I could just extend out to M2:M7000 which should cover the range.

I want to eliminate the possibilities of numerous copies of a file being SavedAs something else, 'cos that just turns into a mess.
I've set my Options/Security to Read Only & I've disabled modification with (password protected).
This workbook contains many formulae & users are welcome to go into it to perform whatever calculations they may require, but I wish to eliminate to possibility of users Saving As, thereby creating numerous copies of the same workbook.
I'll admit now, I don't really understand the "Option Explicit" feature, and does it pertain to this.

In short, I would like a pivot table to only count unique values, but when I click into the pivot I would like to show all instances of that value. For example:
I have a table of data that I am creating a pivot table from. There are fields for Customer ID, Task Name, Age, and Notes. There will be multiple records for a single Customer ID each time it has new notes.
I would like to create a pivot table that has Task Name in the Row Labels, Age in the Column Labels, and count of Customer ID in the Values, so that, for example, I can see how many accounts have been in the Design task for 2 days. However, when I do this it counts each record, but I would like it to count each unique Customer ID. Also, when I click into the pivot, instead of pulling up one line per Customer ID, I would like it to pull up each instance of Customer IDs in that Task Name/Age combination (similar to doing a DISTINCT in SQL).

I have a long list of days and the flight hours of a helicopter in each day. The first two columns are the Date and Flight Hours, at the end of each month there is a space and a cell that says "Total" and may contain other words.
I want to delete every row in which the Flight Hours column contains a 0, a word, or anything that is not a number. This way only the days in which the helicopter has been active will show.
So far I have written a code that deletes every row where there is a 0 in the Flight Hours column, but i would like to delete everything that is not a number, such as a string value, a blank cell, etc...

I have found instructions on the Net for stopping that rather intrusive 'Paste Options' pop-up button appearing in Excel 2003, 2007 and 2010 (I think; or it might have been 2011). But I have Excel 2008, and none of the instructions I have found applies. I cannot find a Microsoft Office button (other than the icon of the folder in Applications); nor is there 'Options' in the File menu. I use a Mac mini (Intel) with OS 10.8.4 (Mountain Lion).

exclude the duplicate row in the macro. The macro is checking for blank or "NA" in column N and copying the row to a new destination file. It is not repeating the row if either one of the conditions is met. [that is wat I want to do] however if the rows have duplicate data i dont want to copy them.
Sub SRSCheck_Data()
Dim Rg_Src As Range
Dim LastRow As Long
[Code].....

Cell 1 has 1,2,3,4,5
Cell 2 has 2,4,5,7,9
While combing them into one cell, there will be no repeat of the same number. So the outcome would be
1,2,3,4,5,7,9
The main point here is to merge the two cells together and eliminate the repeated numbers and sorting the numbers in a cell. Or if anyone knows series of steps not just one function to get to this.

I am using Arrays throughout a large report and each time I move around in the report or simply open the report I have to wait 5 to 10 seconds to wait for the cells to calculate. Is there a way to prevent this from happening other than changing the calculation option to manual.
Is this and array problem? I don't get this when I use multiple vlookups and choose formulas? Any ideas to speed up or prevent all together?

can I put formula to cells on relative basis?
For instance can I write "=A1 + B1" and have a change event the formula populate for the corresponding column that changes? such that a change in C7 for instance populated the result of the formula for A7 + B7 in cell D7?
