I need a way that allows a user to identify, when he has written a duplicate.
For example:
In column A, user typed a string XXX123 that already exists (in the same column),
It will receive a warning, the cell changes color
something that allows indentifying the duplication
i currently have two columns (e.g. A2:A400, B2:B20) and i am trying to match all the values in B to A, displaying TRUE or FALSE (if the values from B don't appear in A) in column C.
i have tried using the various formula for duplicates, substituting what i thought would be the correct formula, but to no avail.
I now need to look through 4524 rows (columns A,B,C) and identify any duplicates based on column A. After all duplicate data has been identified, I would like to delete out all non duplicates. I searched previous posts, but couldn't find anything that worked for me.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a spread sheet in which an account number is located in, lets say, column A. There can be multiple duplicate account numbers here, and thats ok.
However, there is another column, Col. B, which has the name of an action. There are multiple "actions" listed, but the each action can only occur once for each account number. I need to identify if an account number is duplicated and if so, does it have any duplicate values in B. If it does, highlight the duplicates.
i have a series of colums in which i have a formula for checking if each proceding row has the same value in the cells above ie duplication. i am using the following formula
= if(and (C4=C3),(D4=D3),(E4=E3)),"yes","") although this seems to work ok, some of the cells in colums D & E are empty.
what should i do to check for this.
what i am attempting to do is check for duplicate rows where the row is only a duplicate if the previous row is identical.
I have two sheets with many rows and about 8 columns. The second sheet is some of the rows copied and pasted from the first sheet. I have been asked to mark on the first sheet those rows that have been copied to the second sheet.
I need to check that the entire row matches before somehow making the corresponding row in the "original" sheet stand out.
Unfortunately, there is no unique identifier that I can search by. I have tried concatenating all columns into a new column on each sheet and then using MATCH but I get #VALUE! error.
I need to identify repeated code with different text value. The codes in B column appears repeatedly in the list. However some codes have different text value (one time appears with public and another time appears with priv). I would like to identify those codes as 1 if they appear with different text value within the list. I highlighted one code 131775 for reference.

My boss gave me a project and need to be done as soon as possible. Basically, i just need to join all of database and then identify duplicates and put them in another sheet in order to investigate if there are any double payments.
Duplicates can be:
- invoices with same vendor name having same or comparable amounts
- invoices with Invoice No. which match or closely match (in case we're mis-keying)
I've tried so many ways to find duplicates that fulfill the 2 conditions above, but still cannot make it done.
I have data (e.g. PPL0106AU) in columns A (Rows 2 to 104) & C (Rows 2 to 303) and need to identify which entries are in BOTH columns.
I've entered in column B: =IF(MATCH(A2,C$2:C$303),A2,"No")
This formula is resulting in a duplicate of column A in column B.

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:

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.
I have attached my sample XL sheet. Column A & B will be imported from computer system, only one p/n and quanity. Column C & D will be scanned in from multiple trucks and warehouse, p/n might show up multiple times with different quanities. I need to compare A&B to C&D and come up with a recount sheet that shows the difference as in E&F. Ideally this could be put on another sheet that could be printed out for recounting. Is it possible to do all these different functions automatically. There will be somewhere between 3000-5000 different p/n's.

I have a spreadsheet with 3300 rows. In column A there is a list of company names and in column H there is a corresponding Sales Rep name.Column A has many duplicate company names. I would like to run a macro that will find the a company name and then delete all the rest of the rows that contain that same company name.
Attached is a sample of that spreadsheet.
I feel as though I have spent enough time searching the previous posts to ask this question.
I have a 4 column sheet, column B has many cells with identical data. I want to delete all the rows that that have duplicate data in column B.
COLUMN A= Car Makers
COLUMN B= Models of cars
COLUMN C= color
COLUMN D= owner
I want to end up with rows that each contain unique info in COLUMN B.
I am using the following macro to insert the word "Duplicate" in the first blank column next to a duplicate row. My data is sorted by the first column. Data Example:
12345 a
12345 a DUPLICATE
11111 b
23123 b
Here is the macro I am using and it does not work. It marks the first duplicate it finds then goes into an infinite loop. Any Idea where I went wrong?
Sub MarkDupes()
x = ActiveCell.Row
y = x + 1
Do While Cells(x, 1).Value <> ""
Do While Cells(y, 1).Value <> ""
If (Cells(x, 1).Value = Cells(y, 1).Value) Then
Cells(y, 3).Formula = "Duplicate"
Else
y = y + 1
End If
Loop
x = x + 1
y = x + 1
Loop
End Sub

Here is my code thus far....

For RwCnt = 1 To (Worksheets(1).Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Row)
SrchValue = Worksheets(1).Cells(RwCnt, 1).Value

I have a worksheet with a large amount of data in it. Every couple of months the data will change and I place this in a different sheet (sheet 2, this comes from a software tool) . Is there's some code that can run a check on sheet 1 compare all values against sheet 2 and highlight the rows that have a different value between sheet 1 and sheet 2? Perhaps paste the rows into sheet 3 with the different value highlighted??

Im trying to identify anyone who does not have an entry on 2014-02-17. I've played around with combing IF and VLOOKUP and Conditional formatting but I couldn't seem to get it to work. If it were to find a date, no problem, but to find someone without that date I'm having issues. If there was a way to highlight or identify Mary Jane and Frank Simms since they don't have an entry on 2014-02-17, that would be great.
I have two worksheets one worksheet contains Insurnace names and Addresses from a hospital. I need to match these up to specific Insurance codes from a billing company worksheet. The bad thing is my billing database has multiple duplicate addresses for different insurances (Yes this does happen where different Insurances have the same address-don't ask me why). So originally I did a VLOOKUP where I looked up the address from the hospital Spreadsheet and matched it to the Insurance Specific code. The pitfall to doing it this way is that it only grabs the first exact match from the Billing worksheet. Is there a way to either automatically identify the possible matches and allow me to choose which one is the exact match or how do I just identify duplicates on my billing worksheet and match them manually? I attached the worksheet.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have written a UDF to do some calculations i a workbook. I would like to run a sub, checking the cells in the spreadsheet to see if my formula is present. and if so, then add or change an argument in the formula. My problem is:
How do I write the code so that it will recognize my formula ? Is it possible to attach a tag to a formula which Excel can search for ? I cannot search for the formula including arguments from specific cells, relativ to the formula cell, as the user is free to input the arguments with reference from anywhere in the workbook.
I am looking for a way to search using macros. Currently i can search/find by cell, but i need to find with mulitple cells. An example is, sheet 1 "A2" and "B3" date needs to be compared to sheet 2 to see if the data is already in sheet 2. Column A is first name and Column B is last name. Need to know if that full name (first and last) is already in second sheet. I can already search for just the first name or just the last name but now the two together.
