I have searched the many forum solutions for duplicates however the ones I found relate to a single column. However what I would like to be able to do is starting from row 6 is to remove duplicates of multiples columns of a single worksheet, namely columns M, O, P, Q and R. Note some cells in each column are blank.
To clarify - it would firstly check for duplicates in column M, keeping just one of the rows of the duplicated value and removing entiely the row/rows of where the duplications appeared. Then go through each of the other four columns. of the worksheet doing the same for each of the other four columns.
Then after the duplicates are removed from all five columns provide a tally at the bottom of the worksheet of how many times a value now appears in the cells of each of repective columns.
I am trying to tell the spreadsheet that if column G *and* column V are both identical to another row's column G and V, then the entire row is a duplicate and to highlight and delete it. I also want to record a macro of this process to apply to all spreadsheets.
Here are the tutorials I am looking at, but whatever I am doing is not working the way it is working for them.
Conditional Formatting, find duplicates with multiple columns [URL]...
I am highlighting cell A2, and under Conditional Formatting, I select "Formula Is" =SUM(COUNTIF($G:$G,G2),COUNTIF($V:$V,G2))>1
Then I select the format as light orange text, but it is only highlighting A2....
That is as far as I have gotten, and I still do not know how to go about deleting the duplicate entries. I have also read there are issues with recording a macro when trying to find duplicates using more than one column in the formula, but I have not gotten that far so I can't test it.
As is likely evident in my formula and process, I am not very experienced with Excel.
This is a very SMALL sample of the data I need to sort through. We have been using filters but the data is growning and becoming far too time consuming using the filter method.
The output I am looking to achieve is something like this, (any format is fine; whether in rows or columns)
SVR1 1.99.99.254 (2) CAT I (display how many CAT I for SVR1) CAT I: 2011-B-44 CAT I: ST-5546 (2) CAT II (display how many CAT II for SVR1) CAT II: 2011-B-52 CAT II: 2011-A-21
SVR2 2.5.2.333 (1) CAT I CAT I: 2012-E-55 (1) CAT II CAT II: 2011-A-21
COLUMN A, varies from SVR1-SVR1400 (cointains duplicates) COLUMN B, IP matches SVR name (contains duplicates) COLUMN C, will be either CAT I, CAT II, CATIII COLUMN D, will contain duplicates
I have some history of using formulas and nested formulas but this one is really throwing me for a loop. It feels like Inception to me and I'm not really sure where to start!
I need to check, if in A1:BU1 are any duplicate words. All the formulas I found deal with finding duplicates downward (like A1:A1000). Have not seen any formula which works across (from left to right)
Is there an easy way in Excel 2010 either to tag/ and -or remove the duplicate which I could apply and then just copy downward? The formula must work from left to right, because many words repeat downward.
I'm running a football competition for my business where customers are required to guess World Cup football scores via Facebook. I'm storing all their entries in a spreadsheet.
In the spreadsheet column a is their name, b is the match (e.g. England v Italy), c is the home tame (England), d is the score (1-1), e is the away team (Italy)
Across from, that I have the actual fixtures taking place at the World Cup. So column I is the date, K is the home team (England), L is the actual score (2-0) and M is the away team (Italy)
What I need is a formula that when I enter the result on a game into the right set of columns (Columns I:M) it will highlight those Columns (Columns C:E) that have entered that correct score.
It needs to compare 3 columns and not just one because for example if it highlights the score (1:1 for example) it could be highlighting someone who picked Spain v Holland 1:1 where the correct result would be someone who picked England v Italy 1:1.
My spreadsheet has multiple "sessions" by date and each has three columns: a name, their organization, and a column where we want to display an "R" if they are a repeat participant. Each new session is entered to the right of the last. The names are in every third column. Like so:
name company R name company name company name company R
Is it possible to search through the whole document to find repeating names, and then display an "R" in every third column if they are a repeat participant?
Columns A, B, and C have data (first name, last name, state) - 125k rows. Columns F, G, and H have data (first name, last name, state) - 5k rows. Some of these individuals are bound to appear on both lists, and I need to know which ones are indeed on both lists. So in other words, let's say I've got "John" "Doe" "TX" in cells F1, G1, and H1, respectively. I want to search through columns A, B, and C to find out if there are any instances in those columns of "John" "Doe" "TX" in the same row.
I'm thinking there will be multiple VLOOKUP formulas involved, but I could be way off.
I have an excel worksheet which is having duplicate values in multiple columns, i want to remove those duplicates and should return unique values... how can i do that... My Excel Sheet looks below....
Is it possible to scan through column A for duplicates if found delete the row that has not got any data in either column D E or F? If Duplicates are found and neither have any data in D E or F Delete all but one of the duplicates.
I have a sheet that looks like this. JOE D.02082008/28/199 H PAnnual Increase06/05/2006 JOE D.02082008/28/1995 H PReclassification06/11/2007 JOE D.02082008/28/1995 H PReclassification02/11/2008
The name is in Column F the employee Number is the 020820 and we want to only have the latest date in the last column.
So out of this data above. The bottom one with the 2/11/2008 is the one we want to keep. And delete those other 2.
The next group has duplicate names 10 of them. But only want to keep the most recent.
I have a spresdsheet with a few tousand rows that is updated daily. My objective is to remove duplicates from colum C keeping always the most recent (date on colum B). Sometimes collum C will have blank cells and the rows of said blank cells can't be deleted.
This worked wonderfully until a duplicate crept in to Column B. Now there is the potential for many more duplicates. Column B holds an 8 digit numerical number. I am just struggling to add in a parameter that ignores any duplicates that have been added
I have an excel table with several columns two of which I am interested in. What I am trying to do is filter the first column with a specific criterion and then copy the visible values from the other column into a range object. After that I need to remove duplicates. The problem is I get an error. Here's the code. There are a lot of duplicates.
i have a wordlist containing about 0.5 Million words in col.A and Millions of meanings in Col.B. Now in Col. A there are many duplicates. I would like to make one cell of all duplicates in col.A and put their meanings together in B with seperator ";". Its very important that there are no duplicates in Col. B.
For example: Col. A Col.B w1 m1;m2;m3 w1 m1;m2;m5 w2 m23;m24 w2 m50
Now after running the macro the list should look like:
Col.A Col.B w1 m1;m2;m3;m5 w2 m23;m24;m50
The words in col. A are alphabetically ordered and all the duplicates are followed by each other.
I have been trying for a day now to figure out how to remove the unique cells and keep the duplicates only. I have tried a macro but it does not seem to work. Has any one run into this before. I have attached a sample what I would like to do is remove all non-duplicates from column A. The only macro I could find was this:
I am trying to design a macro to remove the duplicates from a selected range of cells. I dont want to specify the range in the code. Rather I want the macro to remove the duplicates from a selected range of cells.
I am trying to remove duplicates from a submitted list of data with alphanumeric data such as BK123034, WKD 4754 in the list. Visually, I can see that there are duplicates when I sort the list into order. However, when I use 'remove duplicates', it says that there are none. I have tried formatting all as text, numbers and general, but no better. I have also tried the formula =or(a1=A2, A2=A3) and they all come out as false.
The code below is supposed to sort and remove duplicates in the sheet in column A. So far it sorts, but I get an error when it tries to remove duplicates. I get an invalid object error.
Code: Sub sort_And_Remove_Dups_Top5_Open_And_Open() Dim lngLr As Long With Sheets("Top 5 Clients")
I have cells A11 to G250. In column E11 to E250 there are lots of duplicate product descriptions. Any duplicates in that column (E11 to E250) I want to remove that full row leaving just a single row (A to G) for that product removing the full row A to G for the duplicates.
Here I can Remove weekly No but Later they will update more weeks. I want automated formula to solve this problem. Values I can add using sum-ifs formula.
