Identifying Duplicate Data Between Workbooks
Apr 22, 2009
I am looking for the easiest way to find duplicate Work Order numbers that exist in 2 separate Workbooks. EX. Workbook 1 Sheet one contains the numbers 1-100 in A1:A100
Workbook 2 Sheet one contains X amount of the numbers between 1-100 located.
somewhere in A:A. For arguments sake let's assume those numbers are 3,6,33,87,99.
What would the formula be to return the values that are in both of the workbooks?

I realise there are a few threads on similar topics but I can't seem to get any of them to work for my scenario. I have two columns with a list of numbers in each. I'm after a function that will scan column A and identify any numbers that also appear in column B. If possible I would like it to then generate a list of these in say, column C.

I have a list of "GPC" or company identification numbers. And for every campaign being sent to the company it will have the same GPC of identification code. I want a formula that indicates if it is the first time mailing the company (as a result return nothing for column D ""), the second time mailing them, third, or fourth. So basically I need a formula to find the duplicate values and return whether it is the first, second, third, or fourth time that code appears in column A.
The current formula I have is a little off because it checks against the cell beforehand. I'm not sure how to modify the formula or what different forumla I need. Attached is an example. I am looking at column A and trying to return the data in D. You can also see the faulty formula I currently have in place.

I have 2 columns I need to compare, in column A a list of ref numbers aprrox 62000 rows, with some duplicates. In column C a list of ref numbers 38000 rows again with some duplicates.
I need to be able to compare Column C to Column A. I need to identify the first instance of a ref number that matches from C to A so that I can delete it. The second instance of this ref number I would like keep. I have tried the following with no luck.
=if(countif($C$2:C38000,A2)>1,"Duplicate","Unique")

I have unit measures that are converted across four columns (FT, SQFT, SQM and SQY).
THere are three units in rows (BOX, Skid and Roll). I am trying to identify in a column labeled "Duplicate Volume" with a formula stating "YES" if there are duplicate numbers (volumes) in any of the four conversion columns listed above. I tried to attach an excel file here but the system will not accept it. Hopefully the diagram i make below will be enough to understand the concept:
Unit Name FT SQFT SQM SQY Duplicate?
BOX 0 0 15 0
BOX 0 0 20 20 YES
Skid 0 10 10 10 YES
Skid 0 0 0 15
Roll 100 10 2 1.5
Roll 0 0 40 40 YES
I have over 50 thousand rows of this stuff...so looking at the data to decide if there are duplicates will not happen.
Any formula that i can put in the column titled "Duplicate" that can identify the duplicates with a "YES" in the cell where duplicates are found?

with creating this macro to identify duplicate text strings in a column, which is great.
But, I'd like to be able to identify them by changing the text of the subsequent duplicates that are found.
For example, if 3 cells in a column are 1111, I'd like to add a string of text to the end of the 2nd & 3rd cell, but not the 1st cell.
1111
dup-1111
dup-1111-dup
This will enable me to sort the column and find the duplicate easier than just visually.
Sub color_dup()
Dim r As Range, rng As Range, Col As String
Col = "d"
Set rng = Range(Col & ":" & Col)
rng.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
For Each r In Range(Col & "1", Range(Col & "65536").End(xlUp))
If Application.CountIf(rng, r) > 1 Then
r.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
End If
Next
End Sub

I have to load the data in Sheet 3 but before I do that I have to make sure that any organisation name that already exist in either Sheet 1 or Sheet 2 should be removed from Sheet 3.
Sheet 1 has 226 Organisation Names
Sheet 2 has 62 Organisation Names
Sheet 3 has 664 Organisation Names
I do not know how to write a Macro, nor d o I know how to write code.
Can someone help with a formular or code? or is there another simple way to do it?

I've collected some data from a GPS logger regarding the speed of an athlete. I want to calculate how many sprints this particular athlete undertook during a training session.
Sprinting is defined as a speed of > 20 kph.
One sprint would be the attainment of one peak >20 kph before decreasing below 20 kph.
It's easy to identify the 3 peaks and thus sprints from the xy scatterplot in the attached file, but I'm struggling to find a way to calculate this.

In column H I have a list of numbers seperated by a space, the number of lines can change. In column L I have a list of numbers which can change either expand or retract.
I would like to check each cell in column H and if any numbers are not listed in column L then it/they should be shown in column G.
Example1 H2 shows 6 11, therefore cell G2 should show 11.
Example 2 H6 shows 5 6 9 11 therefore G6 should show 9 11

I have small table i would like to create. Now, it can be done manually ( but its be very very time consuming) but im sure of a way using IFs and VLOOKUPs so that the data selection can be done automatically...
so in column 1 i have various valuations from 0 to anything 50mil plus that i need to then separate into 4 different columns based on their size. so column A would have 0 - 250k, column B 251k to 500k, column C 501k to 1million and etc etc...
vals 0-250 251-500 501-1mill
555,000 300,000
150,00 75,000

I have attached a sample sheet which deals with property sales data, in reference to a two-part question.
1. If the row has two, or more, rows share the same value in column 'E', it needs to be identified with a 'Y' in Column G. In looking through old threads, this seems possible, though I could not find and answer I could 'bend' to work. If this is possible, can the following be included?
2. If two or more rows share the same value in column 'E', list the identifiers (value in Column A) for the others in Column H, separated by commas "," or slashes (preferred) "/".
ie.
"00370600000700 'NICHOLLS JOHN W & CARLA R 11/27/2000 85000 '260647 W Y '00370600000800" and
"00370600000800 'NICHOLLS JOHN W & CARLA R 11/27/2000 85000 '260647 W Y '00370600000700" or
"'00370500000801 'FRAHM FREDERICK/ERIK/KRYSTYNA 06/17/2004 110000 '288904W Y '00370500000802/'00370500000803"
The sample sheet attached includes 26 rows of data with several 'doubles' and one 'triple' 'duplicates'.
Please note that in the 'real' file, it has slightly less than 200,000 rows and I have seen 'dupicates' up to 40 with the same value in Column 'E'

I am trying to slim down my database results in Excel via MS Query by searching for Part ID's that are numeric (we have parts that also contain letters....I want to weed those out).
In all my searching on the web, I thought the ISNUMERIC() function should be the function for this, but I keep getting an ORA-00904::"ISNUMERIC":invalid identifier....
Is this function supposed to work or is there another function that will do this
This is my SQL statement so far, which works to get parts that are 6 characters long only:
SELECT PART.ID
FROM SYSADM.PART PART
WHERE (LENGTH(PART.ID)=6)
When I change it to this to get parts that are numeric, it gives the error above:
SELECT PART.ID
FROM SYSADM.PART PART
WHERE (LENGTH(PART.ID)=6) AND (ISNUMERIC(PART.ID)=1)

i am trying to work out how to use the rank formula to rank numbers in column B and keep them in unison with Column A.
So Column A has say 5 1's with column B having different scores then continuing under 1 in A is 2 and so on is there a way to continue the ranking formula without manually changing the cell ranges?
so =rank(B1,$B$1:$B$7,1) but can i do that if A =1 and then A=2 etc ?
so if A=1,rank(B1,$B$1:$B$7,1)

I currently have a database that is similar to the example I've pasted below:
TypeDateTimeA10/01/200910:00B10/01/200910:00C10/01/200910:00D10/01/200912:00E10/01/200912:00
As you can see the Date and Time are repeated for several rows. This is how the data I receive comes through as A,B and C refer to a single transaction and D & E refer to another transaction.
Ideally what I would like to acheive is:
TypeDateTimeTransactionA10/01/200910:001B10/01/200910:00C10/01/200910:00D10/01/200912:002E10/01/200912:00
Where Excel can compare the date and times of each row and look for matching rows above and below it and then fill in a column next to it indicating that x number of rows are linked to a single transaction - preferably labelling them in some order to I can tell how many transactions there are.

I am involved in a software conversion that is taking 4 full time folks over 5 weeks to clean up and assign an alpha-numeric sequential number to each vendor, client. Each scrubber is reviewing an excel spreadsheet containing the names, addresses, FID, telephone, etc. of our vendors and customers. This information is being pulled from 2 separate sources. We are assigning a BP # to the main office location and not retiring that one. then we go on to identifying the dups. All dups get a Y to be retired, but if they have a different address then the main one, we place a Y to bring that address over under that BP#.
Ultimately, we end up with 2 systems combined into one dumping all old numbers assigned and giving each vendors, customers, etc. a new BP# that may have muliptple addresses.
How can we assign a alpha numeric number without going through each individual line...over 900,000 of them to do. Key is to identify duplicate addresses and duplicate names. Some names might be RK Electrical or Robert King Electrical but the address will be duplicated usually.

I am trying to write a formula that shows the best grade for each each student and the subject in which
that grade was achieved.
In a previous post i was shown how to identify the highest grade
MAX(IF(A$3:A$34=A7,C$3:C$34))
I hit CTRL, SHIFT & ENTER to activate the formula - Result in column E
However, I also want to identify the subject in which they scored their highest grade in column F
I have two problems
1. I don't know how to write a formula that brings in the subject based on the grade for each student
2. I don't know how to write a formula in case there is a tie (see DAVID L)

I'd like to create a drop down list in data validation from a column of data that contains numerous duplicates.
For example, let's say column A contained hundreds of transactions with either North, South, East and West, how could I create a drop down list in another cell that only had four selection options?

IIn my example I have result data from the 2013 USPGA Tour, ordered by player (column A) with subsequent columns detailing their finishing position in each event.
I simply want to condense each player's performance data into one row - as doing it by hand after each event is very time-consuming.
Is there a way of using a simple formula, macro or pivot table (or whatever) to merge each player into one row, but keep each column in the same position (ie to correspond to each weekly event).

I have three source workbooks that needed to be consolidated into a master workbook pasting the data with values & formatting.
The Master workbook also contains 6 additional worksheets that link to the data pulled in from the source files.
My question is how do I write the code so the source files populate the master in a specific order.
For example, the 3 source files are named "Central" "NED" and "WEST" and I need them to populate the master workbook in that order.
This is the code I am using to consolidate the data:
Option Explicit
Sub ConsolidateSheetsFromWorkbooks()

I am trying to do is when a user enters in a GL (a 4 digit number) from the list (tab 2) I want it to appear in the summary box below. However the same GL number can be used multiple times so I will have duplicates. The data entered above will always change there is over 200 possiblities the user can enter. So I don't want the data to be specific it will populate based on what is entered by the user.
Can this even be done?????
Say if the user entered:
Column C Column G
4606 $20.00
4606 $20.00
2134 $15.00
2301 $35.00
4606 $100.00
The data in the GL and currency column in the summary box would appear as the following:
Column C Column G
2134 $15.00
2301 $35.00
4606 $140.00

So I have a list of integers in col A that is a truncated list from col B. I want to select the units in col B that do not appear in col A. I tried this statement
=IF(A2=B2,A2,0)
Since both lists (A and B) are ordered from smallest to largest this only worked until a value that is not in ColA appears in ColB and then all the cells following = O.

I have a column of cells, of which certain values have the prefix "EmployeeID:". I'm trying to identify the cells containing the prefix by evaluating each cell using activecell.offset and value to no avail. I've also tried to use the selection. find, however the first instance of the prefix is continually selected, and does not move on. I'm assuming that I must use the findnext feature, however I'm not having much success.

I am trying to develop an IF formula based on 2 variables;
1. The value in column Q = 4
2. The value in column AA is between -10% and 10%
When both are true, it should return a value of "YES" (or "NO" when untrue). I am having trouble with the range part. It could be that the range spans negative and positive integers, but I'm not sure. Here is what I've got at the present time:
=IF(AND(OR(Q2=4),OR(AA2<0.10)),"YES",IF(AND(OR(Q2=4),OR(AA2>-0.10)),"YES","NO"))

I want to sort a spreadsheet based on whether any of the numbers '1', '2' or '3' appear in a particular column.
There are 2 particular rows which I care if they have a '1', '2' or '3' in them, let's say row 17 and 18.
I want to create a formula say in row 20 which would tell me if there is a '1', '2' or '3' in the corresponding cells in EITHER (!) row 17 or 18.
An example to clarify:
Cell A17 = 1
Cell A18 = 2
Then Cell A20 would be = 1 because both A17 and A18 have a '1', '2' or '3' .
2nd example:
Cell C17 = 1
Cell C18 = 0
Then Cell C20 would be = 1 because C17 has a '1', '2' or '3' .
3rd example
Cell D17 = 6
Cell D18 = 12
Then Cell D20 would be = "" (Null - no value) because neither D17 nor D18 has a '1', '2' or '3' .
Note: I am looking just for the numbers '1', '2' or '3' not (!) numbers like 11, 12, 13, 21, 22, 23 etc...
