I have a list in Row A that has duplicates. I want to be able to delete both entries (itself and the duplicate). When done I want the list to display only be entries that are unique or better said any entries that never had a duplicate.

From the data above I need to make a new unqie list that would grab all unique entries.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have the below table of data, in Column A there is a list of entries and there may be duplicates in them, what I want to do in column B is be able to list all the unique entries in there and basically remove any duplicates.

Ok, so lets say i have one list of names (cell:value)
A1:Value 1
A2:Value 2
....
An:Value n
and create a new list
F1:Value 1
F2:Value 2
....
Fn:Value n
I want to have a list nearby and i'd like somehow for a function that will remove entries that already exist on the first list.
I regularly have to add a few new lines to what is in fact a very simple data base I've had running for a long time in Excel. About 1200 lines now, one line per person. I add a dozen or so lines (i.e. people) at a time in a different colour.
When I re-sort the whole thing I run my eye down the list to spot partial double (i.e. duplicate) entries (the new ones in their own colour helps). Then I delete the double entries one by one. Pretty stoooopid, in'it?
How can I do this better, faster and more accurately with Excel to find just two duplicated data ( NAME and ID NUMBER) in a person's line (there are 15 columns altogether)? Or: Where and what can I search for (I've just spent nearly an hour trying to find an answer by myself, but don't really know what to search for)?

I want to do a lookup and return to a new list just the unique entries, such as this:
product1
product3
product7
I have it working now using a pivot table to get me the unique items, but there must a be a more efficient function to do this.
I have a list of data and I want to identify the unique entries for both columns but the second column has to unique to the unique values in the first column.

In that file, you can see there is a list of somewhat similar data across 5 columns. Some of the entries are duplicates, some are different by only one character. What I want to be able to do is generate a list of all the unique rows of data, taking into account the data from ALL 5 columns. The list can be on another sheet or simply just further down on the same sheet, that doesn't matter too much.
I could do it if it were just one column of data, but struggling trying to do it with several columns.
Basically from Sheet OEE V20:V500 I have a list of problems being selected from a drop down list validation (which users can add to the list for new problems). Along side these "problems" in Sheet OEE U20:U500 I have a number which represents the number of minutes the problem caused them. Some cells in both these columns will however be empty if there was no problem occour. But wherever there is a problem selected, there will be a number alongside it, there will never be one without the other.
What I want to do is look down Sheet OEE V20:V500 and get two lots of information -
The unique problem names (no duplicates of the same problem) in Sheet Reports A1:A100 for example (I may change the range of this).
The number of occurances of each of the problems it lists in Sheets Reports B1:B100.
Count up the total number of minutes of each problem. So for every occurance of "Paper problem" there will be a unique number in Column U in the same row as the problem and place this in Sheet Reports C1:C100.
I would ideally like to have this as VB code as I am going to tie it into a command button which formats and prints my report page.
I have found various bits of code dotted about the forums for counting unique cell entries but they always seem to produce a list with lots of blank rows (I would like a list one after another without blank rows all over the place) and I'm really struggling to figure out how to make it count up the numbers in the adjacent cell of each entry it sees.
Just in case the list of problems for the cell validation in Sheet OEE V20:V500 is found in Sheet OEE AQ16 downwards.
I'm having problem with the ISBLANK function. I have attached my workbooks if someone would care to look at them. My macro basically loads two lists from other workbooks (old & new (attached)). It then finds out which entries are unique to each list, and places them in the EXCEPTIONS sheet.
Column C in these sheets should say TRUE or FALSE as to whether the corresponding cells in Column B are blank but it does not work. Book1.xls contains my macro.
Old.xls and New.xls will need to be selected when prompted.
I have scoured the net for the following and have not been able to find a solution. I have found variations but not something specific for the use needed here.
I have attached a file with sample data which has the following format.
Column 1 = vehicle model (in this example golf, jetta, but there will be over 100 choices)
Column 2 = vehicle package option for specified vehicle model (automatic transmission, manual transmission, automatic transmission with air conditioning, etc...)
Column 3 = vehicle colour available for vehicle package option
Please note that Column 2 values for 'golf' are different than values available for 'jetta' (in the sample data I have blocked out common values with the same colour for quick and easy identification)
Also please note that Column 3 values of colour options vary for each 'vehicle package option'.
The behaviour that would be ideal is to have 3 drop down menus. The first drop down menu will allow selection from column 1 and will show each model only one time and repeated values will not be shown. The second drop down menu will only show the options available based on the selection in the first drop down menu. Likewise, the third drop down menu will show the colour options available based on the selection in the second drop down menu.
Since my data will involve hundreds of unique values in column 1 with plenty more added over time, it seems that the format of the data and the way it is laid out in the attached sample is the easiest way to organize it. It is perhaps also the easiest way to include new data without a lot of reprogramming.
Sample Data - Dependent Drop Down Cells Question.xlsx
Hello all, I was wondering if anyone would be able to help with a macro or even formula that would remove the entries in Col A that appear in Col C. Attached is an example with dummy data, Col D is how the list should be. If a number appears in A but not C then all instances of it should be kept, conversely if it is in C but not A then it does not need to be kept. Most importantly I need to be able to delete those that appear in both by the same number of times they appear in C.
Hope this all makes sense. Please feel free to ask if it is not clear.
I have attached a sample workbook to try and explain what I'm after.
Basically I want to sum the amount of occasions a person has had checks and each occasion could have 1,2 or 3 individual checks.
I have a worksheet as shown in sheet 1
With I click on the Macro Button I want to display the contents as shown in sheet 2
That means
In sheet 1 there are number of items purchased shown with different rates.
After clicking on the Macro button in Sheet2 I want the following
1. All the single entries purchase should not be displayed
2. All the items purchased 2 or more times but same amount should not be displayed.
3. Only items purchased two or more times should be displayed and that also with different values. Here if the item is purchased 4 times but only once the amount is different then also it should be displayed.
I have given only few items but actual items are more.
The serial numbers should also be arranged automatically starting from 1,2,3, etc.
What is the code if I do not want to change the serial numbers. with a suitable macro.
Wihitn a large SS I have a column which has a number of entries that may include an amount of duplicate entries. Till now I have been using Sort and them manually deleting the duplicates is anyway that I can select just the Column and then without sorting go down and if a duplicate is found, then the duplicate would be deleted. Meant to say the dta is numeric.

I've included a sample worksheet ...
I have a list with many names, several of them appearing more than once. I would like to extract the unique entries an then make the list of them.
I can do that using the filter. But can I do it with formulas ? (In order to, whaterever change is made to the first list, get the extracted one immediately updated).
I was wondering if there might be a better way to write this macro. What it does is clears unique items from a Range( leaves duplicates ) I've looked all over the net I can find all kinds of function and subs to remove duplicates but haven't been able to find anything that just removes single entries. I"ll bet there's a more elegant way to write this maybe using a Collection or a Dictionary.

Set MP1_Rnge = Range("A1:A100")

If Cell.Row = 1 Then..........
I have a worksheet, where in C3:C100 (or even higher) i will have text strings. A lot of these will be repeated, and i want to pick out just one instance of each text string and display it in E3:E10 (or higher).
So, for example, if i had the following values in column C:One
Two
Two
One

Three
Seven

Four

I would want the following values in column E:One

I am using excel 2007.
I am trying to find the sum of unique entries in a table such as below for each respective date.
DateClient1/01/2010ABN1/01/2010ABN2/01/2010BNP2/01/2010HSBC3/01/2010ABN4/01/2010BNP4/01/2010HSBC4/01/2010ABN5/01/2010BHP
The results should appear as
Count Unique1/01/201012/01/201023/01/201014/01/201035/01/20101
What formula would I use to calculate this unique count?
I have this 2 columns, A(region) and B(location), and I need a macro to filter the unique entries in Columns A and return both the unique values in A and their corresponding values in B. I've attached a file on it with sheet 1 having the data to be worked on and sheet 2 being the output that I require.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write an Excel program to calculate golf handicaps. In column A, I have 20 unique dates. In column B, I have corresponding 20 scores. In column C, I'm trying to create a corresponding notational mark, "*", indicating the 10 lowest scores that are also the oldest. However, I'm running into problems as I may have duplicate scores with different dates, i.e. 3/22/06 will have a score of 85 and will be the 10th lowest score, but 4/1/06 also has a score of 85.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am hoping this can be done with formulae. Starting at C7 and continuing down the C column there is a list of names which could potentially run from C7 to C5000. This list of names will contain duplicates. For each name there is a corresponding 'reason' in the F column which will contain the word 'Truancy' or 'Late'.
I need a formula that can count the number of UNIQUE names in the C column which correspond to the word 'Truancy' or 'Late' in the E column.
An example,
[Name].....................[Reason]
C7 ...........................E7
John Potts.................Truancy 2
Matt Jones................Truancy 10
John Potts.................Truancy 4
Matt Jones ...............Late AM
Pete Burns................Late PM
Pete Burns ...............Late Both
Steve Lopez..............Truancy 6
Count of unique names with the word Truancy in the corresponding E column = 3 [John Potts has 2 instances of the word truancy in column E but this is only counted once]
Count of unique name with the Word Late in the corresponding E column = 2 [Pete Burns has 2 instances of the word late in the E column but this is only counted once].
I have also included a sample workbook.
I have a spreadsheet of over 4000 rows. Column 1 is the part, column 2 is the order #, column 3 is the line # from the purchase order, column 4 is cost. I.E. Part- M12053235, Order #- 580001, Line #- 2, Cost- $563.00
Our software duplicated some of the entries and I need to find a way to remove the redundant entries.
I tried using this formula =if(and(b1=b1:b3909,c1=c1:c3909),"redundant","no")
That formula doesn't work because if it does have matching values in column 2(order #) then it looks to see if column 3(line #) matches anywhere in the spreadsheet. Since the data in this column ranges from 1-30, there is always multiple matches. So, my formula shows a redundant entry even when it is not.
I need to find a way so to check if column 3 has matching values in column 3, but only for the range of cells that corresponds to the purchase order in column 2.
I have two lists and I would like a formula which only returns unique values - similar to an advanced formula. Is this possible?
In the attached example my data is in columns C and D and I would like a formula in column E if possible. I need it to ignore the capitals. E.g. BLACKBURN and Blackburn appears in each list but I would only want one instance pulled through in column E.
Currently in column E I have the desired result.
I need to count the number of unique names (column A) on 3 separate worksheets. Each worksheet represents a facility that people visit. It is possible that the same person will visit all three facilities. If this is the case I want to only count them once, even though they may have numerous entries on each.
I need to get the same result as if I was to copy and paste all of the names from three spreadsheets on to one (which isnt an option) and then count unique names. To do this on one sheet I have been using =sumproduct((A1:A100<>"")/countif(A1:a100,A1:A100))
Count unique entries in a column according to two specified criteria.Specifically, I am trying to count the number of days in a month a supplier has a visited.Below is an example taken from the excel:
COLUMN A COLUMN B
Date Supplier
01-ago-12 Mr X
01-ago-12 Mr X
01-ago-12 Mr X
I want a formula that allows me to see how different dates Mr X has visited in each month. So in August he has visited 8 times BUT only on 5 different dates.
In the case of Mr Y I want the formula to give the answer 5 (even though he has visited 6 times in total, he has visited on only 5 different dates).
In the case of Mr X in September, the answer to the formula would be 2, since has visited on 2 different dates in September.
I'm trying to write a macro to use as an auto-update feature for a spreadsheet.
I currently use Data validation on an input cell to allow the user to select from a list of product types.
I'd like the update to affect this list, so new product types are always available to the user.
However, the list of product types is in another spreadsheet and contains numerous repetitions.
I've managed to get the following code together based on what I've used before and what I've found searching so far, but it seems to have a bug in it as it wont always work. I also need the original copying of the list to be done to either the new spreadsheet of a different page in the original spreadsheet, but every time I try this it causes an object error.

I am seeking to pull names from a list on one worksheet in to particular cells on another worksheet using each name only once. I need a function or series of them that can accomplish this. I have been trying to figure this out for a couple of months with no luck as I always get into some form of circular reference....
