I know how to delete duplicates using the function under the data tab, but how can i locate them. For instance, a spreadsheet with a list of PO numbers, how can i do a search to see if it is showing the same PO number multiple times?
View 9 RepliesI have about 20k records with dealer codes and brands listed. I need to be able to see the duplicates from the dealer numbers and brands. Is there a formula that can be used to locate them and see them before removing them?

I have 30 teams with 15 players each
I have teams in rows and players columns with their ID and then name so B2 would be 444 and B3 would be Johnson and B4 would be 429 and B5 would be Smith
What I want to do is run a formula that counts the duplicate ID's not names and then shows them in a list like below
Duplicate ID, Number of times in worksheet
444 , 23
411 , 21
211 , 15
How I can do this.
I have inherited a series of Word reports containing links to charts in several Excel files. I can tell by the link in Word that one of the charts is named 'Chart 6'. Is there an easy way to locate which chart in the Excel file is 'Chart 6' (and on and on for all of the other charts linked in the Word doc)? There are upwards of 21 charts in each Excel file linked to each of the Word reports. I am using 2007 but the files are in 2003 format because of limitations of the program from which the data comes for the charts.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI require a bit of code that locates where the excel file is stored - it then searches that directory folder for all file names. Any file names with an extension *.hm for example are listed in column A, while their relevant 'Dates of last Modification' are listed in Column B.
Every time the spreadsheet opens it should ask the user if he/she requires a re-search of this directory and update of any file names accordingly. NB: if a file name is deleted from the directory, the file name should remain in the spreadsheet.
I need a macro that identifies duplicates within a spreadsheet. Unfortunately, the utility provided by Microsoft is not adequate because the text strings that are potential duplicates are nestled inside other text.
Fortunately, however, there is a unique text string that will locate the duplicated data. Below are two examples:
Plus -- Zero Box ==> Zero Box Medium ID=7288 (submittedby Anna Johansson)
Basic -- Zero Box ==> Resolve Medium ID=6397 (submittedby Kazy Suzuki)
The data that needs to be identified as potentially duplicated is the four digit number (i.e. 7288 and 6397). You will notice that they are preceded by “ID=”.
The spreadsheet has over 26,000 rows of data and 1700 plus IDs. The characters ID= proceeds the four digit number in all cases.
I simply need a macro that will provide a list of the four digit numbers that are duplicates. This will allow me to easily locate and manually delete any surrounding, unwanted data from the spreadsheet.
The data that the macro needs to search is contained in and restricted to Column C.
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 list of isometric drawing numbers ending with a [underscore]weld number e.g. 1692-SG-0040-04_05.
Some welds are repaired--in that scenario the amended weld number will be 1692-SG-0040-04_05R1, and even 1692-SG-0040-04_05R2 if repaired for a second time.
On occasion a weld may be cut out entirely and a new weld done. The weld number for that will be 6317-FG-1690-02_06C1.
And here's a wrinkle I've just verified...a cut weld may also be repaired so the weld number will look like 1698-SG-0077-01_04C1R1.
Is there a formula to count these as one weld:
1692-SG-0040-04_05
1692-SG-0040-04_05R1
1692-SG-0040-04_05R2
This as one weld:
6317-FG-1690-02_06
6317-FG-1690-02_06C1
6317-FG-1690-02_06C2
...and this as one weld:
1698-SG-0077-01_04
1698-SG-0077-01_04C1
1698-SG-0077-01_04C1R1
I am having trouble creating a function to count duplicates of duplicates.
An example of the data table 1 is:
Product 1 2nd
Product 1 2nd
Product 1 New
Product 1 New
Product 1 Flt
Product 2 2nd
Product 2 New
Product 2 New
Product 2 Flt
Product 2 Flt
Product 3 2nd
Product 3 2nd
Product 3 2nd
Product 3 New
Product 3 Flt
I created a new table (table 2) and made a list of all the Products on table 1 and removed the duplicates. I now have 3 columns with titles New, 2nd and Flt as follows:
New 2nd Flt
Product 1 XX XX XX
Product 2 XX XX XX
Product 3 XX XX XX
I am trying to count the duplicates for each product (XX), but I can't seem to work it out. I've tried the MS help function, but unsure of the actual formula I need to be using.
I am using Windows 7 and MS Office 2010.
I have installed Excel on my new computer. Went to save a macro and I cannot locate the file "Personal.Xls"
Inside of Excel I can unhide "Personal.Xls" and it is visible.
We have an excel worksheet with textfields, that are compiled (when a btn is clicked) and the results are assigned to a static range. (Meaning, the results always appears in the same cells)
Question is: How can i have the results appear in a different row each time, starting on row 14 ?
I have one column of data (numbers). Within this column, are the values for two different categories...which are separated by a blank row. And then a total for each product given one column over; like this:
Product1 123
Product1 456
Product1 789 1368
Product2 456
Product2 123
Product2 456 1035
Either product can increase/decrease in rows, so I am unable to set a static range. The only solution I got on my own was to use SUMIF (sum the column of values if it matches the name "Product1" or "Product2"). This is fine until someone misspells the product name or leaves it off completely; which is why I prefer to go off the actual values.
My 1st preference is to go off the totals. Basically, return the 1st value (ie 1368) in the column, and then in another cell, return the 2nd value in the column (ie 1035).
My 2nd preference would be to sum the individual values in the column until a blank cell is encountered, and then return that value. Then continue on until another blank cell is encountered, and return that value as well.
I know very little of vba, so I haven't taken that route, but I bet this is easily done as a UDF (although I would prefer not to do it that way).

I'd like to use the INDEX & MATCH functions to look in a table (in 'misc') and find a value contained within a specific cell in Sheet 1 but I am getting a #REF error and I'm not sure why.The formula is as follows:
VB:

In the attached sample workbook, (Excel 2007 format), there are hundreds, maybe thousands, of drawing objects and rectangles. They are mostly located near the top of column AC. You can't see any of them, because they are empty, or formatted to have no line and no fill, ubt if you move the cursor around in that area, it will eventually give you the option to "select" one of the objects. They appear to be stacked on top of each other.
This bloats the worksheet terribly. I have managed to shave the size of the attached sample down to 100K, bu deleting about 200 of the objects, but if I save this balnk file as an Excel 2003 file, it is 1.3 Mb.
I have discovered how to show what objects are on the worksheet, by selecting "Find and Select" and choosing to show the "Selection Pane". This pane shows hundreds of blank objects in the sheet. When this pane is open, however, if I try to select and delete an object, Excel locks up on me.

I have a Workbook (only 1 sheet) that is filled out each month and consists of sales and revenue data. I need to copy the total sales and total revenue and paste them to another sheet. The only problem is that it is never consistent as to which cell the totals will be located in. They will always be in the same column, but almost never in the same row.
For example, one month there will be 8 individual sales and the total will be in Cell F13, but the next month will be F20. THe same needs to be done with Total Revenue (which is always one cell right of the Sales Total) I need to copy and paste the cell with Total in it (in this case F13) and do the same for each month after. This is not difficult to do in Excel, but i need some code to include this process in a macro.

I've often lurked in the background here and have found great solutions to my problems from the ozgrid FAQ's and email outs.
I have a custom VBA formula that has a heap of ranges as inputs. I loop through one range then perform calculation on the other ranges in the formula.
The formula is to work on 2 sets of data, 1 with more columns than the other. I've set Optional variables for the unnecessary columns.
For some reason I keep getting circular references on the 2nd set of Data.
I've attached the spreadsheet (stripped down) to show both examples.
I'm absolutely confused why the "teaching" one calculates correctly and "support" gives a Circular reference error.
I've set the Iteration in options and this corrects it, however I'd like to know why one works perfect and the other fails?
