Removing Duplicate Fields
Jul 24, 2009
I need to restructure a report that I have imported into Excel.
My columns are titled (from left to right):
Company Name, Account ID, Client Code, Billing Street, Contact Name, Contact Number
There are many rows per Company because every company has many contacts. As a result, for each company, the Company Name, Account ID, Client Code, etc. columns with their associated information in the fields underneath the heading are repeated unnecessarily.
How can I delete the extraneous fields of information (leaving one Company Name field filled out per company) without having to go in an manually deleting them (which would take hours)

I have spent the last couple hours compiling a large amount of data. I have a list of websites, each have a number of visits and transactions. The list is many thousands strong so i have a huge amount of data to work with but there are a lot of duplicate sites. See below, I have taken a snapshot of some of it:
I've highlighted a duplicate example.
Would it be possible across the entire data set to sum all of the duplicate rows into one. So, for the 3 shown, to be reduced to one row with 228 visits and 2 transactions?
And to do it quickly? As I could go through them manually but I don't have to time to go through 10,000 rows.

Let's say I have two mailing lists, A and B.
A:
bob@bob.com
jeff@jeff.com
tom@tom.com
cindy@cindy.com
jose@jose.com
B:
fred@fred.com
jeff@jeff.com
angus@angus.com
cindy@cindy.com
chuck@chuck.com
Now I want to create list C, a modified version of list B, which is made up of everybody in list B, EXCEPT for those people who are also present in list A (in this case, Jeff and Cindy).
So basically list C should look like this:
C:
fred@fred.com
angus@angus.com
chuck@chuck.com
What would be the fastest and most efficient way to create list C?

I have a data set that I add information to weekly. I then add a value at the end of the row, example active or inactive. I've found that, when using the remove duplicate function, it does not always remove the second instance, resulting in a loss of that added data(active or inactive). So I guess my question is, can I somehow specify which instance of duplicated data is removed?

Hi, I have a report that has multiple lines for the same job with notes of issues and solutions. Each line has a date assosiated with it.
What I need to do is to delete all of the notes apart from the first one. I have attached a sample of the data and highlighted the rows that need to be kept.
I have left the data in it's raw form as it is not always extracted in date order.
Can anyone help me out with a Macro that will sort the data and remove all rows apart from the earliest note per job number?

I have an excel spreadsheet with approximately 10000 rows. There are approximately 10 columns...
Column A - person's ID number
Column B - name
Column C - Street Address
Column D - City
Column E - State
etc...
It being such a large list there are many many duplicates (it was pulled from a bunch of different excel spreadsheets and combined into one via copy and pasting one document into the other).
I figured out a way to have excel highlight the duplicates in a different color... but scrolling through 10k people and deleting the duplicates is obviously very tedious (approx 40% of the spreadsheet is duplicates).
Is there a way to sort out the duplicates (via their ID number, column A) so that there are no repeats? I want to get rid of the 2nd/3rd/4th (etc) occurance of the person's information but I was to obviously keep the first occurance.
I tried using Advanced Filter but I must have done something wrong because it shrunk the list too far down.

I have a column that is filled with various car brands that a dealership might sell. The data in the cell may look like CHRYSLER; CHRYSLER; CHRYSLER which I would want to just say CHRYSLER. If the cell says CHRYSLER; FORD; CHRYSLER; FORD I want it to just say CHRYSLER; FORD.

Currently trying to solve a niggling issue with removing duplicate row data from competition entry databases using the following code...
Code:
Sub remove_duplicates()
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim i As Long, j As Long
On Error GoTo errhandler
Columns("A:G").Sort Key1:=Range("A2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Key2:=Range("B2") _
[Code] ......
errhandler:
'MsgBox Err.Description
End Sub
What I need to happen is for duplicates to be based on both the name and email matching (columns A + B) and then remove all duplicate rows, whilst ignoring but preserving the content in columns C,D,E and F on those rows that remain. Column G contains either "Yes" or "No" depending on a users membership status. Sometimes duplicated data will contain identical name and email address but have different membership status in column G where someone was logged in when submitting a form the first time, and then logged out the next (potentially a mixture of the two over multiple times). Therefore I need any duplicate users who have different values in the G column throughout the database to be detected by the macro and we must ensure that the single row retained in the final non-duplicated list displays "Yes" in column G for that user.
Duplicate users who are always "yes" or always "no" work fine, its only the ones with mixed values for column G that need to be analysed and their return forced as Yes in the final list.
The final list should preserve the original column structure and thus be only one row per unique user.
The above code appeared to work the first time with a sample file, but when running the macro on one of my full size lists (3k - 5k rows) it returns 2 rows for each user who started off as a mixture of Yes/No... ?
Both rows will say yes in column G (so that part is correct!) but I have to re-run the macro again on the same dataset for it to remove the duplicate yes rows to get the list as it finally should be!
So I can achieve the result by running it twice, but this is a bit of a cheating way to do it and also the next stage after this involves something similar across multiple worksheets so I need something rock solid to build upon!

I have a list of customers that contains duplicate records. These records ALSO include thier addresses WHICH may or may not be identical.
Example: Customer with LAST NAME in A1, FIRST NAME in B1 may be the same person as A2 and B2, however each record may have a different address in column C1 and C2 respectively.
I want to be able to filter out all duplicate customers based soley on the first and last name (data in columns A and B).

Suppose I have some data in a column like below
Blue
Red
Green
green
red
RED
BLUE
I need a macro or excel formula so that it will remove duplicate products- case sensitive(removing all duplicate prod using using excel,that i know.) i.e. it should not consider Blue BLUE as duplicate. only consider Blue Blue as duplicate.
So the macro should work same as data -> remove duplicate function already exists in excel, except it will be case sensitive..

I'm trying to remove duplicate entries from a list of names & addresses.
What I'm after is some VBA code which will examine row by row the 'post code' field and the 'Full name' field and highlight/delete duplicate entries.
Its best illustrated by an example
Full Name Address Postcode
Mr C. Verougstraete 6 somone st, Leicester HY8 9YK
Mrs R. Brazier 8 high st HY9 9LK
Mr C. Verougstraete 6 somone st, HY8 9YK
The last record is obviously a duplicate of row 2 therefore will be removed.

I am trying to do is when a user enters in a GL (a 4 digit number) from the list (tab 2) I want it to appear in the summary box below. However the same GL number can be used multiple times so I will have duplicates. The data entered above will always change there is over 200 possiblities the user can enter. So I don't want the data to be specific it will populate based on what is entered by the user.
Can this even be done?????
Say if the user entered:
Column C Column G
4606 $20.00
4606 $20.00
2134 $15.00
2301 $35.00
4606 $100.00
The data in the GL and currency column in the summary box would appear as the following:
Column C Column G
2134 $15.00
2301 $35.00
4606 $140.00

COLUMN A= Car Makers
COLUMN B= Models of cars
COLUMN C= color
COLUMN D= owner
I want to end up with rows that each contain unique info in COLUMN B.

I am using the following macro to insert the word "Duplicate" in the first blank column next to a duplicate row. My data is sorted by the first column. Data Example:
12345 a
12345 a DUPLICATE
11111 b
23123 b
Here is the macro I am using and it does not work. It marks the first duplicate it finds then goes into an infinite loop. Any Idea where I went wrong?
Sub MarkDupes()
x = ActiveCell.Row
y = x + 1
Do While Cells(x, 1).Value <> ""
Do While Cells(y, 1).Value <> ""
If (Cells(x, 1).Value = Cells(y, 1).Value) Then
Cells(y, 3).Formula = "Duplicate"
Else
y = y + 1
End If
Loop
x = x + 1
y = x + 1
Loop
End Sub

I have some code but I still need to do a considerable amount of tweaking to it. Currently my code is only deleting the duplicate values in Col A. I am having difficulty summing the values in Col D as well as deleting the entire row.
Here is my code thus far....
-------
Public Sub FindDuplicates()
For RwCnt = 1 To (Worksheets(1).Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Row)
SrchValue = Worksheets(1).Cells(RwCnt, 1).Value
If Len(Trim(SrchValue)) > 0 Then
With Worksheets(1).Range("a1:a" & Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Row)
[Code]....

Although I have removed the original numbers in the main area (I12 - AM12), there are still values in the fields I11 - AM11 that just won't go away. These formulas merely sums up the columns below as far as I can see so I can't figure out how come the values 101, 98, 9o etc aren't '0' since there are no values to add anymore..
NB!Not sure if the formulas will be in norwegian or if they change based on language settings but think you will be able to figure them out regardless..

I have a list of company names and I need to find the duplicates. Of course pivot table finds the exact matches, but how do I find duplicates when only 1 character is off. Like punctuation or "s" or a mistype of a single character?
Example:
Jo Blo inc
Jo Blo inc.
Jo Blo inc
Jo Blo icn
Joe Blo inc

I have a workbook that is used to calculate sales & commissions for our sales reps. The majority of the worksheets are "RepLast, RepFirst". All of these Rep worksheets include an identical format. I need to add another sheet which grabs the total quantity of products A for each rep and sums them on the new sheet. And repeats the process for products B to Z.
Is there a way to do this other than longhand naming each rep and then the field in the worksheet? We are regularly adding new reps (and losing some periodically), so I would prefer to not have to regularly update the longhand formulas (i.e. ='RepName1'!A25+'RepName2'!A25+'RepName3'!A25...etc) as that would seem prone to introduce calculation errors.

I have a rather unique problem with a new workbook I have created and it only affects 2 sheets out of the the entire thing.
The sheet is driven by a name:
Schmoe, Joe
Diddly, Bill
These names are picked from a drop down list. When a name is picked it autofills other fields using the LOOKUP command:
=IF(A3="","",LOOKUP(A3,Roster!A2:A181,Roster!C2:C181))
By now I think this is pretty straight forward and works wonderfully well for the other 50+ sheets. However I have two employee names where the second of the two (Diddly, Bill) takes and autofills the fields with Schmoe's information. The only thing I can randomly pick up is perhaps the employee numbers are too close:
00868
