Is it possible to use a macro to first highlight the duplicates and then second to use the find and replace function to skip throughout the spreadsheet to find each one. The duplicates will be UPC codes in a single column that will be "numbers stored as text". I would like the macro to search all of the column (Column Q for example), then highlight and find each dup.
View 9 RepliesI want to search Column A in sheet1 vs column B in sheet 2. If there is a match, i want copy Column B in sheet 1 and PASTE it to Column E in sheet2. I have a macro (helped by those on here ) that will find the duplicates and copy cells from the cooresponding row only to another sheet.
The tricky thing is, the macro I have makes a complete new sheet. I want to copy the data to column E on sheet2 ONLY if there is a match for that cell. If ther eis nto a match i dont want it to put anything.
I have a spread sheet, and i'm new to the macros & VBA world.
I'm trying to generate a search tool that will search through C9:C128 and display the data that does not have a duplicate.
thoughts? can this be done with an excel formula or would it need to be a macro?
What I'm trying to do is lookup a description matching the date on worksheet 1 cell (a2) and go to worksheet 2 and copy all descriptions associated with that date into worksheet 1 in cells b3:b6 (array may vary) without duplicates.
The date and descriptions relate to safety inspections and I am trying to include them in a report. The answer is important to me as well as the benefits to many others.

if I have a column of 5 cells (E1-E5) that contain a single character, how would I search a range of columns and rows (A1/5 - D1/5) with these?
So if E1-E5 each contain "1", i would like to return true when one (or more) of the A - D columns also contain "1" in each of its cells.
Columns A - D will contain a string of more than one character so it needs to search the string.
e.g.
E1 = 1
E2 = 1
E3 = 1
E4 = 1
E5 = 1 and
A1 = 123
A2 = 134
A3 = 142
A4 = 412
A5 = 213
I would like this to return true because the A cells do contain the values in the E cells.
I guess this is like looking for duplicates but with a search string twist!
I have a excel 2007 workbook that has 5 sheets "MASTER" , "RED" , "WHITE", "GOLD" & "BLUE". There are 7 columns in each sheet and the master has about 8,000 rows . In column D of each sheet there is a unique number (approx. 8 - 10 digits ) that I would like to at the press of a command button search through sheets "RED" "WHITE" "GOLD" & "BLUE" against the unique numbers in the "MASTER" sheet and if there any duplicates numbers delete the entire row but leave all the data in the master sheet.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way that you can group duplicates with a macro? ...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've found this macro that prints out the information for each row, when I select the range -which is great. The only problem I have is, if i have the same info in the first row and second row it prints out both. Which is what the Macro below is meant to do.
Can a IF formula be placed in the Macro so that if person A in row 1 is already printed, it will skip person A in row 2 and print out the next row, and repeat the process for any other duplicates.

I have a macro at work that shows which files are duplicates (same name plus file size) it then produces a list of this with 3 fields file path(excluding file), file name and ext, and size. it produces a duplicate of the file for example:
file a
file a
file b
file b
i would like a macro to delete just 1 of theese (as deleteing both would be bad!! haha) and have no idea how to start this. other than going through all 1679 files that have a duplicate.
I work with large spreadsheets. I was hoping that someone would know how to create a macro that will take selected cells in column C and search all of column C for exact duplicate entries. The macro envisioned would let you select cells to test. If a dulicate entry is found I would need the macro to test the cells in column E against one another. If both C & E match exact (if possible maybe display the findings in a pop up box) I would like the macro to ask me if I want to delete the duplicate entry, if yes, delete the entire row. If no, skip it and move to the next one. If C but not E match I would need the macro to ask me to remove test cell. if yes, cut out the entire row of the TEST cell and paste it in a new sheet. If no skip it and move on.
Am I just dreaming or can this be done.
how can i select only duplicates using a macro?
i have a list in which i have a set of duplicate values i need to select only the duplicate ones using a macro to have them worked on
It takes all numbers in column 4 starting with Row 15 and deletes all duplicates. It then shows the number of times the number was duplicated and puts this number in column 3. MY PROBLEM: The macro searches each line and takes FOREVER! I have data with thousands of lines. I already tried the screenupdating method which really doesn't help that much. Is there possibly a better code for doing this?

I have a macro that I found somewhere on the net to look within a folder and list all the files of a certain file extension.
The macro to do this is in the attached example and is called 'Get_File_Names_Within_Dir_ext'.
I have created a basic userform outline, 'UF1' for the user to define:
Select File Extension
Select Folder to Search
Destination Sheet
I just don't have any idea how to sync the two.
If you type 'exe' into 'TB1_File_Extension' of 'UF1' the macro should search for '*.exe' files within the specified folder.
The search folder 'RefEdit1' box should open a windows explorer box (or some such) so that the user can select the directory in which to search for the previously specified file extension.
'TB2_Destination_Sheet' is a text box for the user to type the sheet within the workbook in which to list the files found within the specified directory.
'CB1_Find_Files' should activate the macro to find any files for the specified criteria.
There is also a Button 'Find File Types' in Sheet1 of the file which should activate the userform 'UF1'.
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 need a macro that duplicates lines based on the value of a Column. So in Attached excel D1 is 10 - I need it to create 9 entries for that line, so there are 10 total duplicate lines.

So here I have two columns Column 1 with repetitive values of some 10000 records Column 2 with unique values of 100 records I want to compare Column 1 and Column 2, identify the values in Column 1 that match with Column 2 and highlight them. Conditional formatting for duplicate values doesnt work because Column 1 has repetitive values.

I am currently working on a project where i am given a sheet that typically has several hundred rows of data and not seemingly organized in any manner. This document has 6 columns, and my main focus is a range of dates (in MMM-YYYY form) from around early 2000 to now that can have duplicates. The dates(Column C), have corresponding Usages (Column D), and Costs (Column F) and I need to add these values together and remove the duplicate months so I only have one Usage and one cost Per month.
My spreadsheet has 6 Columns of data, and varying number of rows. Currently, since I receive the numbers in an unorganized fashion, my macro organizes the data into a table and then sorts the table be date so I have the oldest dates first and the duplicates are adjacent. There may be varying numbers of duplicates, though typically 0 to 4.
So I have the macro written, but I don't get the complete data that I am looking for. This is what I am trying to achieve
Here is an example of what I am trying to achieve. This is in the first sheet:
Column A Column B
Car Saw
Dew Jacket
Pen Key
Saw Screen
Hand Shoe
Jacket Window
Screen Sock
Screen Mouse
Now I want this in the next sheet:
Column A Column B Column C Column D
Car Saw Screen Sock
Car Saw Screen Mouse
Dew Jacket Window
Pen Key
Saw Screen Sock
Hand Shoe
Jacket Window
Screen Sock
Screen Mouse
In my current macro, It displays most of what I am looking for, but not a duplicate ID if there is one. For example Screen, there are 2 IDs. My macro is only getting the first one and then skipping over the second ID. I would like it to where if there is a double or if it is there more than once that it gets all of the data.
Here is my macro.
