Merge Duplicate Cells Or Keep Duplicates In One Column If One Of Rows Has Data
Apr 7, 2014
I have a huge document that looks like this
Column A______Column B_____Column C
100/12__________B___________$
100/12______________________@
100/12______________________€
250/13______________________€
250/13______________________$
I want to keep in ColumnA all three rows of 100/12, because it has a value in Column B in one cell-which is the criteria, and remove the 250/13 because it has no value in cell B.
I was assuming that merging duplicates in column A, and than remove empty from ColumnB.
Those rows have to be deleted where duplicates exist in column A and C. In our example the first three rows would meet the criteria and two of them have to be deleted. Content of Column B has to be merged with ";" but without duplicates. The result would then look like:
In a big data sometimes I have identical rows (maybe the 'Quantity' column has different value). I would like to merge them into one and add the quantities together. I have to use B and C (I need both) to find out if these rows are identical.
For example: A1=date B1=111222 C1=ABCD ... and G1=quantity (1) A2=date B2=111222 C2=ABC ... and G2=quantity (1) A3=date B3=111222 C3=ABCD ... and G3=quantity (2)[code]......
After sorting and filtering rows with in a set range I will have several rows that are almost duplicates. This is normal and expected due to how the workbook is used. Among these rows also will be several single rows that are not duplicates. It is important that I combine any two duplicates into one row. Example:
CREATE TABLES LIKE BELOW? ABC D E F G H I J K
1 NameA 0XX15930777PS101300PS9
2 NameA0XX15930777PS91200PS10
3 NameX1159XXP555FBX1545PS9
4 NameB0A1234P123PS101263PS9
5 NameB1A1234P123PS90512PS10
What I need is this end result:
CREATE TABLES LIKE BELOW? ABC D E F G H I J K
1 NameA 0XX15930777PS91200PS10PS101300PS9
2 NameX1159XXP555FBX1545PS9
3 NameB1A1234P123PS90512PS10PS101263PS9
Its important that the data in each column stay with in that same column. Also of course it needs to be on the same row with the same person (NameA and NameB). The Columns that would determine if its a duplicate are D and E . I would need this to be preformed via macro or some easy way so that others will not have a hard time. It will be on a protected Shared Workbook with Excel 2003. I've enclosed a Sample. How can I sort these or accomplish this and maintain the data where it needs to be?
I am trying to merge rows of duplicate entries, say I have the following information in a excel spreadsheet:
Column A: Name Column B: First Line of Address Column C: Area Column D: County Column E: Post Code Column F: Tel Number
If I have the data above in my spreadsheet I want to basically search and look at columns B,C,D,E and F and then if there are any duplicates of these for that row anywhere on the sheet I want it to merge the Data for those duplicate as shown below:
A|B|C|D|E|F Dave, Mark | Rice Rd | Liverpool | Merseyside | L45 7HT | 6381754 Tony | Hill Grove | Runcorn | Merseyside | L78 9JU | 6527897 John | Lime Ave | Runcorn | Merseyside | L34 9HF | 7248853
I have managed to find a macro that is shown below however this macro only looks at 1 column and then merges the data based on that which is not what I want
I know how to merge data in a CSV (see attachment) from 2 columns into a single cell using =A1&" | "&B2 so that A1 (Safety Products) plus B1 (Fire Protection) becomes Safety Products | Fire Protection in cell C1, but how can I do this across multiple rows so that each pair of names is combined in each row? The job I'm working with is a product CSV file that has 6370 lines so I don't want to do them one line at a time!
I have got a wordlist in worksheet "original" which looks like:
Before: [Code] .....
I need a macro which merges the columns B,C,D,E and F depending on if there are duplicates in Column A or not. If there are one two or more duplicates in column A,then those should be deleted and only one of them should remain in column A. The members of deleted duplicates in column B,C,D,E and F should be merged together. No duplicates should be made by the process of merging. Each member in column B,C,D,E and F has to be unique. The results are supposed to be put in worksheet "new".Columns B,C,E and F should be merged through signe "/". And Column D should be merged through signe ",".
After: [Code] ......
The macro must be able to deal with very large lists. biger than 200 000 words in column A
Here is the excel file containing the example : excel file
to prepare an excel spreadsheet for a mailmerge but as all of the info for 1 recipient needs to be in columns instead of rows. I need to convert 2 columns' data into columns but only when there are duplicate invoices, see below;
I want to make a report wherein the macro has to merge cells based on duplicate cell values in column A and to put corresponding data in columns into one cell which we do manually by pressing ALT+Enter.
How this can be done through a macro or other tricks as I need it for a large report and need to use repeatedly.
I have two columns of data, and I need to create a third column to count the number of times that same line appears in the document (and then remove all but the first copy of that line). my data looks as follows (and it is sorted so all duplicate rows appear directly next to each other):
Adam1998 | Jan Adam1998 | John Adam1998 | John Adam1998 | Paul Adam1998 | Peter Adam1998 | Peter Adam1998 | Peter Adam1999 |John Adam1999 | Paul
I need this to look as follows: Adam1998 | Jan | 1 Adam1998 | John | 2 Adam1998 | Paul | 1 Adam1998 | Peter | 3 Adam1999 |John | 1 Adam1999 | Paul | 1
I have to show a report with 3 columns= Physician names, Section and number of procedures. The problem is that physician name repeat several time according the section they order and I need to show in the first column each Physician name just one, see attached picture.
I did try to use conditional formatting and advance data formatting but not working properly for me. I was able to use =A2=A1 conditional formatting and hide duplicates physician names but shows only the last row of the duplicate names no the first one.
with deleting duplicate entries in a spreadsheet that contains two names, a code number and a date. All rows with a duplicate number in column “B” should be deleted. Write a micro code? I have a few thousand of entries that need to be knocked out.
I was given 6 spreadsheets combined into one (the reason is immaterial-but valid) it is what it is... unfortunately! (42 columns, 14,000 rows of which 450 names are duplicated as illustrated below)
I want to merge duplicate data.. but not the way I see it shown in all the 'merge' and the 'delete duplicate' threads I have seen so far.
I manage a homeless shelter and someone duplicated the spreadsheets and started using the duplicates to enter fresh data.... several times!
As a result I now have somewhere around 8 instances, (or 7,5,3 etc) of every homeless guest, but it has duplicate data in some columns, and new data in others, for instance:
I want to turn this.... Name SS# 1st entry date, 2nd entry date, 3rd entry date, fourth entry date, etc...
John Smith, 123-45-6789, 1/5/2010, 7/13/2010, 3/30/2011, 5/16/2012 John Smith, 123-45-6789, 1/5/2010, John Smith, 123-45-6789, 1/5/2010, 7/13/2010, 3/30/2011,
I tried de-duping based on duplicate rows and that worked with the pure duplicates get out of the mix, but if I try to to de-dup on only the first two columns of data it may remove date I want to keep.So I need to de-dupe and merge at the same time.
I have a new project that needs macro code. Your help is very much appreciated. We have a spreadsheet with duplicate accounts meaning two or three rows with the same account but different information. We want to use only one row for one account and move the new data from the same account to one row only to the right and delete the duplicates. Can someone please help me with this?I read so many post and I tried some of them but it only delete the duplicate row and not copying the new data from that row to one row only. Also, the other code I tried was retaining only the current or old data. Actually, to elaborate more, I want to get the new data in each cell of the same account in multiple row and move it in one row to the right only and delete the duplicate in that same account.
I'm in need of a formula, or another automated technique, to link a column of data from one worksheet to another. I have an input worksheet that I copy the raw data into that is formatted as follows:
I need this import sheet to link to an output worksheet that would be updated automatically as new data is entered into the input sheet. However, I need the output sheet to copy the input values a specified # of the times and list them. For example, if the specified # was 3, it would be formatted as follows:
I need the formula, or method, to be one that I don't have to continually re-enter as the data changes, as I have thousands of records to do this with. I've tried filling down, but autofill doesn't recognize an accurate trend. Is this something that I can accomplish by combining several fomulas, creating macros, or a combination of the both?
I have a large compilation of data on an excel work sheet (I am using 2013). All cells relate to each other by means of dates, names, and other numeric values such as stock numbers, id numbers etc... In one column some stock numbers are repeated. I would like to know if there is a way to set up the program on this worksheet to highlight all repeating stock numbers, not only in the column but across the cells as well, in lieu of doing so manually.
I am trying to collect data from a server. The data comes through as .csv (seperated data), and I am able to get all the useless info/columns out of the way - but I would like to keep a record of how many times these "alarms" come in. form a spreadsheet, or tell me how to go abouts using a tool to simplify my process.
I need macro that will check for list of duplicates in sheet1 and place the duplicate data in sheet2. I know how to check duplicates in only one column.But now my sheet having lot of columns.
I am new to macro and just trying to learn. I have a spreadsheet with 20000 rows and 8 columns. I am trying to identify equal rows based on the values of columns C, D, E and F. then I need to separate equal bunches with a blank row. Then I need to copy the ID number from the first cell of column B of each bunch and paste it for the rest of the rows in that bunch. I have written the following code but this does not put the ID of the first cell in a bunch for the rest of the rows in that bunch.
I have a large list of text in one column which i need to combine between blank rows into one cell or a new column, the number of rows to be combined varies.
for example
aa bb
ww xx zz
rr
gg hh ii jj
would become
aa bb ww xx zz rr gg hh ii jj
I have over 30000 lines so doing it by hand is not an option.
I have a set of data which I would like to do some processing on. Basically I am concerned with two columns
Column 12 and Column 9
Column 12 is a unique account Reference and column 9 is an invoice number. My scenario is that 1 account can have multiple invoices. I want to do is serach down column 12 and find all the matches and then I want to take column 9 and combine the data within that with the previous record.
Original Data Column 9 Column 12 2345 A0001 2312 A0001 2341 A1200 1234 A0001 4569 A1234 3456 A1234
I have a sheet where i want to delete duplicate rows where column A and column B combined are equal, i.e. range(Ax:Bx) where x is the current row. I am using the macro below but cant seem to get it working as I keep getting a type mismatch error and Im not sure why.
I am trying to get excel to search a workbook/(or worksheet if easier) for a matching unique value and fill in its associated data. My first workbook has the SKU (A) filled in but not the UPC (B). My second workbook has both the SKU (A) and the matching UPC (C) filled in.
I need to take both workbooks/(worksheets), compare the SKUs, and if a matching SKU is found, extract the UPC from Workbook 2 and fill in the UPC field in Workbook 1, and if no UPC is present in Workbook 2, then it leaves the cell in Workbook 1 blank.
