Remove/Clear Duplicate Cells
Apr 15, 2008
I have a workbook with 12 sheets, 1 for each month of the year. Each month has around 30,000 user IDs on it (this is a log of each time a user logs into our website). What I need to do is find out how many unique users have logged into our site for the whole year, or in other words, remove duplicate user ids accross the workbook. I realise that this will probably destroy my processor, so was wondering the best way to do it? I also have all this information in ONE spreadsheet if it would be easier? I just copied and pasted each month into a column (Jan is column A, feb in B, mar in C etc) I ran some code on this sheet to remove dupllicates from column A:E but this was taking AGES!

Checked for a while now for a match in my query but can't find one that matches. I have a column of data to which has multiple values in each cell separated by a comma I.e 1,1,12,37
I copy this column into a new sheet a:a then I'll run text to columns to separate the values into there own cells so the following columns now show this
a1 =1 b1=1 c1=12 etc
I'm now stuck as I need to clear the contents on the cells within range a1 to k1 that have duplicate values.
end result is a1=1 b1 is now blank c1 =12 etc

I have a spreadsheet that I have created as a door schedule for faculty members at our institution of higher education. The intention is for them to fill-in their office hours and courses along with a few other bits of information. One sheet should have their teaching and office hours and one sheet should not.
These are the cells that should be cleared once the sheet has been duplicated (F30, F31, G30, G31). Once the sheet is duplicated and those two cells' contents has been deleted, both sheets should be printed. Ideally, all of this would be initiated by clicking a hyperlink or something like that.

I have two columns each of 5000 cells. Some cells of column A are duplicated in column B. The duplicates are not necessarily on the same rows. How do I delete the duplicates?
I've spent hours researching for an answer and I've tried Data>Filter>Advanced Filter many many times and it does not work. The two columns just sit there. Shouldn't this be a very easy thing to do in Excel?

I have a large worksheet and I managed to duplicate data in a row of cells.
MOT 1/F1,
B/P 1f2,
B/P 1f2
In the string above I need to delete all text from the first comma to the end of the string so the above would look like:
MOT 1/F1
This is an example in one cell of many. The text prior to the first comma may or may not repeat and it is the only portion of the text I wish to keep. The first comma is not always in the same place (character count position).

I am trying to find a macro that will clear duplicate entries in a column of data, and then move to the next column and repeat the process until it gets to a blank column.
There are blank cells between entries in a column. I need to keep the data unsorted as the cells are linked to others in the row, therefore I dont want to delete the cells, just clear the contents.

how to reference the drang (named range) and the cell propertly as i keep getting an error.
Everything in the below code works except the parts below in blue
details:
I have in column X lots of names and in column Y (dynamic column
anges as the users chooses them as per the code) and I want to loop through all names in 'X' and if there are multiple of the same names then for the corresponding 'Y' row entry of each be checked and if they are equal (same $ value) then for one of them of cells in the Y column to be cleared.
Basically if the same name appears more than once it will most likley have the same $ value and if i do a calculation on the $'s it will be 2,3,10 times the amount it should be, hence the need for this .
As per the below code I am trying to use 2 for Each loops though I keep getting an error when trying to reference the drng range which has the values in them..

I attached a file in which column A is dr_cr and E id INST_NO and column G is INST_AMT. This file like a bank statement. in which one instrument(cheque) present and i denote it c(credit) in column A. but if cheque credit then d(debit) means that this cheque present and dishonour. but some time one cheque credit and then debit and then credit. it means that we have to remove previous credit and debit entries. in this attached file you found this type of entries. i want to remove this type of entries. i further explain.
1. if one instrument have one credit and one debit its ok.
2. if one instrument two credit and one debit then remove one credit and one debit where instrument no and amount and drawee bank must be same.
3. if one instrument have two credit and two debit we have two remove one one debit and one credit.
4. if one instrument have three credit and two debit then we have to remove two credit and two debit so one credit left.

Is there any way of Removing the first duplicate in a list only? I am writing some vba to automate a month end process and wonder if there is a way to achieve this? (excels remove duplicates function keeps the first, and removes everything else). The data is in column C.

I have 2 issues i am trying to work through, i have a spreadsheet with 3 data sheet tabs, the first issue i have is in Data sheet 1 I have a lot of duplicate addresses, I was wondering if there is a way to filter out the duplicate addresses so that only one of each address is showing.
Issue 2 that i have is a lot more complicated, In data sheet 1 i have a list of medical providers that reimburst at 110% or more, each address on that list needs to get 1 letter mailed to them, but i have to keep track of how many are going to each region, i.e. Columbus, OH region, Cincinnati, OH Region, Toledo, OH Region, and Cleveland, OH region. So what i want to do is create a 3rd data sheet that keeps track of total letters sent by region, but was wondering if it was possible for this info to be automatically transfered from data sheet 1 to data sheet 3. I don't need all the information in data sheet 1 to tranfer to data sheet 3. All i need is for data sheet 3 to read off the City field in data sheet 1, and calculate 1 letter sent to that region.
I dont even know if this is possible, but it is way beyond my realm of excel knowledge which isn't much.
Any help would be appreciated. I am trying to attach the spreadsheet, however it isn't allowing me to attach it, i keep getting a database error, when i upload it. It is under the max size limit too. Not sure what's going on.

I used to have a macro that did this for me, but the layout of the exported data has changed and now the whole macro has had to be rebuilt.
I've got a list of two pieces of data: Material (Column A) and Order (Column B). I'm putting a spreadsheet together and populating it with VLookUps. This spreadsheet will list the materials and the Orders after each, but then I also want to list the second Order in the next cell if there is a second order.
For instance, in the below, Material 10880873 has two different Orders. The first VLookUp grabs Order 513792568. I need the second VLookUp to grab the next Order 513792569.
MaterialOrder
12012223513571068
12149080513739571
10880873513792568
10880873513792569
12215347513792570
12160123513801190

ive got a spreadsheet with records such as this
james - smith - leeds- 01535 - 26/02/1983 - bd21 6ls
steven - smith - bradford - 213789 - 28/01/1982 - bd33 5th
james - smith - leeds - 01535 - 26/02/1983 - bd21 6ls
steven - king - manchester - 213789 - 28/01/1982
andrew - wright - bingley - 36473 - 12/01/1981 - bd23 689
what im trying to do is to check all of the rows for duplicates in such a way that (if any row has the matching colums 1,2,5 and 6 then all but 1 of the rows will be deleted.
i have a few thousand entries and am just trying to get rid of all the duplicate rows. The problem is that the duplicate rows are not IDENTICAL for instance soime of them may have spelling mistakes hence i cannot just do a straight forward if row = row then delete.

So for a project I need to put together a list of Portuguese-speaking last names. So I have various sources where I copied from, so I have one column in excel where I put all that data. I sorted the data to be in the correct alphabetical order. But when I try to remove the duplicate values in that column is says it removed them but it didn't and when it does it leaves many behind. I have tried the trim function, and even formatting but nothing works. I attached the non-formatted and non-trimmed list, because it doesn't seem to be making a difference.

I am trying to create a summary sheet that updates when input data is added.
I'm still learning many parts of excel and I'm unsure why the SUMIF function on occasion leaves duplicate data in.
I can live with the fact that I will need to correct the input data and am willing to just paste in corrected data when it has been validated via the data validation tab.
Once this has been done, all I am seeking is for a subsequent process to start which updates a summary sheet with the sums correctly adding via the sumif function.
I have left some instructions on the actual spreadsheet to clarify my intended results.

My spreadsheet has more than 200 columns and 5000 rows of data and blanks. When I select all columns and rows and remove the duplicates, 6 records are removed. I need to only keep and be able to identify those 6 records. I could use something like =IF(COUNTIF($A$2:A2,A2)=1,1,0) if I had only few columns that would identify dups but since there are so many columns it would be prodigious job to create one formula for each column and filter through 200.

Column A has values increasing by 1 but not necessarily each row, i.e.
1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 5 7 7 7 8 8 9 10 10 11 11 11 11 12 13 13 14 14 14
I have a listbox which I want to Initialize by listing these values but not duplicating them (so in this case it would contain 1-14). Here is the mindblowingly complicated code I currently have:
[Code].....
This gives me the list as it appears on the sheet but doesn't get rid of the duplicates for me.

I am using the following code to remove duplicate records from a sheet:
[Code] ....
It successfully removes the duplicates (based on Columns A and B), however it is changing the formatting of the cells and messing with the conditional formatting I have on the sheet.

Have a sheet that has a bunch of part numbers on it. Column D6 (and down).
Some of these part numbers have a duplicate but they have a W at the end.
Example:
62590391W
62590391
What I need is for the macro to identify the part number without the W. Add the value of the same row Column I to the W part number same column.
And then to delete the entire row that the non W part was in. All the way down column D. Need it just for Active sheet.
Example:

I want a macro which will remove the total records in "CHILD" sheet by comparing with "MASTER" sheet based on the condition that if the data from columns A, C and D are totally match between two sheets
e.g. see record 14 in "CHILD" sheet which should be removed as it is matching with 3rd row of master sheet.

Is there a quick way to remove duplicate values from a ROW. The "Remove Duplicates" operation under the "Data" tab only works for a column selection and not a row selection.
One approach I am thinking about, is to transpose the row into a column, run "remove duplicates" and then transpose again into a row.

I am using three columns - Col A contains serial number, col B contains name and Col C contains Codes.
The problem is in col C as sometimes the codes are copied from other files also. So I want that if there is any duplicate codes in column C, on running the macro it will delete the duplicate rows and keep original record ie the duplicte records added later has to be deleted and that the original record will be in place.

I have 6 columns on my data sheet. F column is Amount column.
If there are rows where all the columns A,B,C,D and E duplicate then I need that row to be deleted, BUT before that the value from the column F should be summed to the duplicating row's F column.
I attached a simple example file, where you can see my point better. (I need the code to work with thousands of rows, and not only with 5 rows which i put on the axample)
