Find A Duplicate Value Within A Range
Nov 29, 2006I have a selected row as my range. I want to check if a specific value ("*") repeats twice.
View 9 RepliesI have a selected row as my range. I want to check if a specific value ("*") repeats twice.
View 9 RepliesSee attached doc "Find and Delete.xlsx". Inside, the value in F12 is a very important cell. Using the text value from F12, I first want to use visual basic code to find the range in column B because it will vary. This means the 'text words' column might have 50 words or it might have 2000. I have racked my brain trying to find a universal way to find a variable range.
Then I would like to search for the exact text value within this range in column
B. For example, in F12 is the text word 'windows xp registry cleaner' and you can see that this value is in B9. There will only be one exact match in column B.
I then would like the vb script to delete and remove this found value, then move left one space in column A to also delete the ID number associated with the text word. Then shift both rows up to fill the empty gap. I have tried numerous different codes but to be honest, I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. I've tinkered with find and replace, vlookup, match, find, search, and many more.
I have made up 7 worksheets that are completely identical with exception of course to the data they contain. I have a master sheet that contains some of the data from each of the other sheets that will be shared between them. Things were working very well until I discovered that some data was duplicated on a couple of the sheets; and I am in need of adding more worksheets.
The formula I am using for this will not allow me to have more than the 7 worksheets. It is an IF statement array. So now I am wondering how will I be able to add these extra sheets. I would like to use my worksheet names in a range but have evidently done something wrong and could not get that to work before, ending up with this very long 'IF'. !Can worksheet names be used to create a named range?
Also, I would like to know if there is a way to prevent duplicate data on these sheets. I am using conditional formatting on each sheet now, but that of course only works on the current sheet.
I have multiple items in the similar column. I need to find the row number of the last one. For eg. In column B1 to B5 I have Apple in the first 4 cells and Mango in the last cell.
Apple
Apple
Apple
Apple
Mango
I need the Row number of Last Apple i.e row 4. How can I achieve that using VBA?
I'm treating a set of data in excel in wich I have three long columns of values. I need to find all sets of three equal values in these columns (for instance, I need to find all lines with 1,1,1 or 2,2,2 and so on). How can I make a programe to do this?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI have pasted an excel report that I need to find any duplicate information. For example they are seperated 2 sets of 4.
For example:
Column A and B is one set
Column C and D is one set
With column E is where I need a way to flag duplicate information with "yes" or "true" on that set
The same would need to have happen on the next column G thru J then M thru P finaly S thru V

I have two columns of numbers (2003), some of which match. Each column is of a different length and is arranged in a different order. I need to find all the number matches between the two columns. I can sort them ascending numerically but the columns are still disjointed with only occasional number pairs being readily visible.

When a user enters a postcode into the postcode textbox - called txt_Pcode - on the userform, I would like some VB code to look at the existing supplier's postcodes (on separate sheet "Suppliers") and if the postcode already exists then go to it so that the user can visually check whether the 'new' supplier exists and decide to continue entering the new supplier or not.

View 5 Replies View RelatedGot a workbook with 4 worksheets and sometimes we need to cut and paste a row from one worksheet to another, now thats easy now as we are all human and sometimes it gets copied and we have duplicate logs.
Now each sheet has usually not got that many rows in it, but that spreadsheet is getting sent to the highest people in the company and any mistakes look poor.
What i'm looking for is a way that i can highligh any rows that a duplicated in each worksheet. I can do it in each worksheet using conditional formatting with something like = COUNTIF($A8:$A$20,A8)>1. but don't know how to check that is not on any other worksheet. On every worksheet only need to check Col A for the duplicate information
I need to generate a form letter from values on another sheet. I'm using vlookup and as you know, for duplicate values, only the first reference is given. I have several duplicates and need to pull the correct row data for each instance. I would need to replace each vlookup with the proper formula in my letter.

The background to my problem is that I'm trying to create a unique dictionary for a game I'm programming. I have imported the dictionary into Excel and need to manipulate it with the following conditions:
Word length can only be 3-5 characters longWord cannot contain special characters like hyphen or apostropheWord cannot have repeated characters
I got the first two criteria done using pretty brute for methods. The first using the LEN function to find words greater than 2 and those less than 6 and then comparing those two lists to get the list of 3-5 character words. The second I did manual search for characters and replaced them with six random characters so they would fail criteria 1 and be filtered out.
The last one I'm having problems figuring out. The game I'm programming only lets you use a letter once. So words like "dad" (or coincidentally enough "mom") would not be valid.
Is there a way I can look at the words in the cell and see if any character is repeated and then act upon that (e.g., copy to another column if no letters are repeated)?
I have a worksheet that tracks errors (10 different error types are tracked) that may occur on anywhere from 20 to 200 different jobs. What I need to be able to do is find all the jobs for any given day where a specific error has occurred two or more times for that day. Often a specific error will occured many times on the same job on the same day. What I need to end up with is only one row for each job that shows the Date/Time (m/d/yyy h:nn), JobNumber (number), ErrorNumber (text field) by either hiding or deleting those rows that do not meet the criteria.

View 4 Replies View Relatedhow to reference the drang (named range) and the cell propertly as i keep getting an error.
Everything in the below code works except the parts below in blue
details:
I have in column X lots of names and in column Y (dynamic column
anges as the users chooses them as per the code) and I want to loop through all names in 'X' and if there are multiple of the same names then for the corresponding 'Y' row entry of each be checked and if they are equal (same $ value) then for one of them of cells in the Y column to be cleared.
Basically if the same name appears more than once it will most likley have the same $ value and if i do a calculation on the $'s it will be 2,3,10 times the amount it should be, hence the need for this .
As per the below code I am trying to use 2 for Each loops though I keep getting an error when trying to reference the drng range which has the values in them..
formula to find duplicates and count only on instance of them.

As you could see on column A i have several entries,some of them duplicated. In column B i have a formula to check weather the value on column A is duplicated or Not. From this values i want to count only one instance of duplicated entries. I want to have one instance of Oscar to be counted as original and regardless the number of duplicates i want to count only 1. i want this not only for Oscar but for all the duplicates with more than 1 duplicate result.
I have a list of data that currently has a conditional format on it of =COUNTIF($F$2:$F2,$F1)>1 so that it will highlight the duplicate but keep the first entry blank. I wondered whether there is a way to identify the last duplicate in the list. i imagine this could be done in a column say with an "L".
View 7 Replies View RelatedI found a lot of information on this but not what I need. I have 8 columns A - H. Column D has some duplicate numbers. I would like to find the duplicate numbers in column D (they are all one right after the other) and delete the entire row leaving only the first. I do not need to sum or anything, just delete the row with a duplicate number. If there are 2 or 3, I just end up with one.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.

i need to identify the first and last duplicat entrys and delete all rows in between.
eg keep row 275 and 277 and delete row 276 all duplicates only in column C ..
compare and find exact matches b/w the data in columns J and K in the attached csv file. I would simply like all rows with exact matches to be hidden. I can simply change any code to reflect something like
Selection.EntireRow.delete
later if necessary.
I am attaching a small sample data set. The first column contains the ID numbers and the second column has the dates. The rest of the columns are some data. When you look at the ID numbers, there will be some common ID Nos. numbers, for example, 300003 (4 in number) but the dates are different for them. What I am going to do is to create a pivot table with the ID Nos and the months. But I want the date to be only the oldest date for example, I want the date for 300003 to be 12/3/2004.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have 2 sheets that i need to find what the same valued cells are.
1 sheet has names and i need to find the rows where those same names are on the 2nd sheet.
The formats are different (upper-lower case) and there is additional text as part of the cells in the 2nd sheet. (i.e prod123.web.corp.com) and i just need to find the prod123 parts.
I have a file with many values, distributed across multiple columns.
From sheet1 i want to find and move all the duplicate values in the sheet 2 and I need a macro,a code macro to work at the level of the sheets, Sheet1-Sheet2
I want to move cut/paste all values duplicates 2 times 3 times or how many times is found from sheet1, in sheet2,but in sheet1 to keep single values, in sheet 1 to remain single value, only the values themselves which didn't pair I mean if a value is 2 times to move the original value but and double found.
Im trying to find out if there are any duplicate records in my spreadsheet. See look at the attached. Cell 6745 down is highlighted in green. I want to check this against all the cells above. need to write a formula so that it marks any products in the green section with duplicate (in column I) if they are in fact repeated.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to find duplicate rows that are not EXACT identical. Conditional formatting can find duplicate rows but they must be identical exactly(ofcourse)(even extra SPACE,COMMA,DOT wont find duplicates)
I have name and address(street address) columns. I don not want my invitation cards or mails go to same address twice.
As you can see in the file ..all 5 records belong to same address.(address entered in diff styles,some comma,space extra..etc) 4 and 5 are Son and Wife of 1st person. Row 5 and 6 have same text but one extra space in 5th row makes it unique so i need to eliminate such records with same address So can i set some formula so that duplicate rows will be highlighted if any 3-4 words match ?

Code macro, is to move the duplicate values in sheet2,
I want to change that results from sheet 2 to be placed on columns A and B, not as it is now spread all over the sheet 2
This is the code....
I have rows of 10 keywords. I want the macros to compare the first row against all the rows except itself, then compare the second row against all the rows except itself, the third row against all the rows except itself, basically looking for duplicates...It will then record in a column for each respective row, the max # of duplicates found with another row..
For instance lets say I was looking at the 15th row, and it looked for duplicates elsewhere. It only found duplicates in the 4th row and the 5th row. In the fourth row, there were 5 keywords common, and in the 5th row there were 7 keywords common. Therefore the max # of common words is 7 for the 15th row, and that is what is recorded.
In addition the number of rows will probably vary it could range from 1 to 500. I included an excel spreadsheet that has visually speaking how this could work, maybe using COUNTIF. Basically it counts the # of common keywords for one row with all the other rows, pastes the count #s to the right, then finds the max of those count #s, copies the max into another column, then clears the count #s, and looks up the next row, repeats the same process. It is easier probably if you look at the attached spreadsheet to get an idea of what i am talking about..
