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 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 have a worksheet containing of column A and B. I want to remove the duplicate words and merge their meanings without having duplicates in merged meanings.
I want to remove the duplicate words in Column B and merge their meanings. The new wordlist should be then in Col. D and the merged meanings in Col.E:
Result should be:
Col. D...........................Col. E w1...............................m1;m2;m4 w2...............................m3
I have a code for this problem but unfotunately it allows duplicates in E. I will be very thankful if some could help me out with that. I want the code not to allow duplicates in column E.
We receive huge Excel files and we need to validate for and delete duplicate records before they are imported to a software product called Exceed Premier. We are having a difficult time with Excel spreadsheet duplicate record validation because we have to first export the files from the Exceed database into an Excel spread, merge the thousands of other new records from multiple Excel files, then import back into Exceed.
Is there a method in Excel/VBA that can merge several worksheets and check for and delete duplicate irecords? The records will be in the 20-50K range and growing.
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
I have two name/address lists in separate Excel workbooks. I need to merge and eliminate duplicates by name. One has single name field in format "Lastname, Firstname". The other has a single name field in "normal" format (First and last name). Ultimately I need to end up with two name fields, First and Last, and this I can do.
The problem is in identifying any possible duplicates between the two lists. Why? Because the first list will have names like "Smith, Robert" and occasionally maybe "Smith, Robert J.". The second list will have names like "Dr. Robert J. Smith Jr. PhD", as well as possibly "Robert Smith" or "Dr. Robert Smith".
Using Text-to-Columns will still require a lot of reworking, because the last name won't always be in the same column, depending on whether there's a Dr. or Mr. or middle initial and so forth.
I've looked into the LIKE( ) function which holds some scant hope, but I don't think it will happen for me either.
How I could compare "Robert Smith" to "Robert J. Smith" or "Dr. Robert Smith" or "Dr. Robert J. Smith Jr. Phd"? Imagine all names in column A.
I am attaching a file with an example of a spreadsheet that I am trying to sort out. In this example I have 3 samples (I could have many more). Each sample has 8 columns associated with it (N, M, I, F, S, MS, KM and KD). The length of the dataset is different for each sample. The MS column is the same as M but contains a few zeroes. What I am trying to do is:
1) generate one column (MSA) containing only unique values (no zeroes) from columns MS1, MS2 and MS3. The unique values should be selected within a specified tolerance (for example, 0.001, which makes 52.00706 from MS1 and 52.00701 from MS2 duplicate values although they are not exactly the same)
2) generate 3 columns ( named SS1, SS2 and SS3) with sorted columns S1, S2, and S3 so that for each value of MS in column MSA each of the three columns will list the corresponding value of S1, S2 and S3 (zero if there is no corresponding value)
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.
I am a CAD person, trying to edit a large spreadsheet for reading into CAD.
I need to merge 2 worksheets into a 3rd. Then search and delete the blank rows. (There is only 3 columns in the document, but can be as many as 5,000 rows or more)
The Cad program does not like blank rows, so I have to delete them if users insert them, and there may be several in a row. (Users need only edit one of the worksheet, No. 2)
The 3rd worksheet must then be saved to a Tab-Delimited txt file in the same location on the network as the xls document.
I am able to select the worksheets and copy to a 3rd, but how to go to the end of the data, before merging the other data from the 1st worksheet into the third.
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 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.
I would like to remove duplicates in column D, but keep the first instant. It was to look at column A for duplicates then look at column D and remove all but the first one.
