Excel 2003 :: Translating Remove Duplicates Function To Work
Oct 16, 2013
I've been left with a macro built in 2010--but I need it to run in 2003.
I've identified a Remove Duplicates function as the cause of a bug, how to translate this to a 2003-friendly macro? This will be an action in a much longer macro. What I am trying to do is check for duplicates in a particular column (Column C), and remove any duplicate row (it doesn't matter which duplicate is removed).
I recently upgraded from Excel 2003 to 2007, and the worksheet change procedure that i have embedded in my worksheet no longer fires when the criteria are met. If and if I fix it to work in 2007, will it still work in 2003?
Here is my procedure:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim rngCell As Excel.Range If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C19:R19")) Is Nothing Then For Each rngCell In Intersect(Target, Range("C19:R19")) If rngCell.Value = "BLACK" Then MsgBox "Please select a shading style", , "Shading Style Required" End If Next rngCell End If End Sub
I am having difficulty with a Vlookup in Excel 2003. Basically I have converted both fields to Text using the text function =TEXT(A2,"0") and have tried matching the values but just get an #N/A error and I have also converted both back to number format but still get the #N/A error....when I do a "=" operator function it returns a FALSE value but I cannot see why as both cell are just 4 or 5 digit number.
Using Microsoft Access to pull from a database work orders. Some of those are what we call "dummy" work orders and have a letter in them, real work orders are signified by a 10 digit number. I would like to sort and eliminate the letters to find appropriate data. I am assuming I will need to copy into excel and do some sort of formatting but not sure where to start.
Running Excel 2003. I have a list in column B, of numerical codes. What I want to do is find the duplicates, and list the duplicates in column D. Is this possible?
Excel 2003 - delete duplicates based on value in one coloumn.
very simple but how!i want the whole row deleted where there are duplicates in one column but ONLY the duplicates, so, if they're 3 duplicates in the column i want 2 deleted leaving 1 unique record.
I have two lists that I need to compare and remove duplicates but the two list are not identical, ie. one list has four columns and the other one only has two columns.(Using Excel 2007)
I was able to write a OBject dictionary in a loop that removes dupes. During this build I did not take into account that I needed to restart the loop whenever the cell in column L is not the same as the next cell down.
I have a excel 2003 template that loads a csv file and create a graph.What I am trying to do is remove the Workbook_open macro after it has been run so when they save the file it will not save the macro in the new file.
Unfortunately we don't have 2010 at work so I don't have the luxury of the use of the duplicate function.
I'm using Excel 2003 and need to remove duplicate names from a list; what would be the best formula to do this.
I've done a countif to identify how many occurrences appear; any other formula if greater than to get to the object of how many staff I have in the list
I need to check, if in A1:BU1 are any duplicate words. All the formulas I found deal with finding duplicates downward (like A1:A1000). Have not seen any formula which works across (from left to right)
Is there an easy way in Excel 2010 either to tag/ and -or remove the duplicate which I could apply and then just copy downward? The formula must work from left to right, because many words repeat downward.
I am using the follwoing code which works as it is supposed to except that it does not remove the duplicate entries, almost as though the code skips that step. How can I fix this?
I have a column of text where I need to remove all the characters to the right of the last occurance of a special character.
I think a process like reading from right to left, look for the first occurance of the special character, and return the characters to the left of this position.
If I can determine the position of the last occurance of the special character, I could use the LEFT function.
The SEARCH function is close. It finds the position of the first occurance of text inside text but it reads from left to right. I need to read from right to left.
Another approach is to examine each character one by one from right to left. If the character is not the special character, delete it. When the character is the special character, delete it and stop the process.
There is no consistency in the text. The total lengths vary. The number of times the special character occurs in the text vary. The number of characters to the right or left of the last special character vary.
I much prefer not to have the solution be some VBA because I need to share it with others who are even less capable than I am. We are using Excel 2003.
I want to pull the very last odd duplicate. Example below, I want to pull out A3, and C5 and delete the rest. Is there a function that will allow me to do this?
For example,
Column 1 Column 2 A 1 A 2 A 3 B 1 B 2 C 1 C 2 C 3 C 4 C 5 D 1 D 2 D 3 D 4
I have a worksheet of data that has 12 columns of numbers (sourced from an external data source) that I have a subtotal for each row. I need the user to be able to hide columns that they do not want included in the subtotal. I have found references to Subtotal(109,D2:Q2) on the net that apparently does this but it doesn't make any difference whether or not I hide columns (I am not using filtering).
Does anyone know how to do this using a formula, (I would prefer to keep this a macro free worksheet)
I'm using Excel 2007. When I try to scroll with the mouse wheel, it doesn't do anything. If I hold down the control key and scroll with the mouse, it zooms in and out. So that works fine, but I can't do the basic scrolling up and down the document with the mouse wheel. There is no "Tools, Options" menu in 2007 so I don't even know where to find this type of option. The options available from the Office button are completely different.
I am trying to insert three columns within a large amount of data. I am using Excel 2003 edition. The three columns need to measure max, min, and standard deviation of month long ranges and the data goes all the way back to 1993.
Currently, I have a column that has the correct ranges but finds the average for each month
(=AVERAGE($H7214:$H7243))...
And many more ranges as it dates back all the way to '93. Is there a possible way to insert these three columns with their respective commands (=MAX... =MIN... etc.) while keeping all the ranges from the AVERAGE column.
In effect, I am looking to solely switch the begining of the column command
(=AVERAGE($H7214:$H7243)) to (=MIN($H7214:$H7243) etc...
While keeping all of the specified ranges from the AVERAGE column.
I need to remove the duplicates under column B for each item under column A and I can't seem to figure out how to do it.
I'm using Excel 2007; I would prefer a VBA solution, as I have to do this on a monthly basis. However, if a formula is the best way to go, then that's just fine. Either way, I'm preparing the data for a pivot table. I am unable to post the actual document in the interest of data protection.
Essentially, I'd like to turn this-
_ A B 1 Paris Bill 2 Paris Bill 3 Paris Mike 4 Paris Derek 5 Paris Derek 6 London Mike 7 London Bill 8 London Mike 9 London Bill 10 London Derek 11 Tokyo Derek 12 Tokyo Derek 13 Tokyo Derek
into this-
_ A B 1 Paris Bill 2 Paris Mike 3 Paris Derek 4 London Mike 5 London Bill 6 London Derek 7 Tokyo Derek
In other words, each city should have only one instance of any name that accompanies it; not all names will accompany each city.
