Removing Duplicates Based On Column Values And Criteria?
Apr 3, 2013
removing duplicate names. Students were allowed to take a quiz as many times as they wanted. I need to remove the duplicate entry by keeping the highest grade.
Here is the setup of my excel file. Column 1 has surnames, Column 2, has first name, and column 3 has grade.
I can't figure out how to filter them based on first and last name because some students have the same name. with the grade as the criteria
I'm adding data from a report into a spread sheet and some of it will be duplicated. I want to remove the duplicate data, but is there a way to differentiate between the older (and more complete) data and the newer data? In other words, how do I get rid of the duplicate while keeping the one I want to keep?
I was considering the advanced filter, but if I create too many columns of criteria will it be seen as unique?
I have a list of about 85,000 addresses and I know that there are about 35,000 duplicates in it.
If I do 'Remove duplicates' it deletes them but takes the first one of each it finds and what I want to do is remove the duplicate with no UPRN in it (Column B)
I am importing some data from a source which every time I just want to have latest revision of documents and I want it to be dynamic so that every time I import data the deletion would be automatic the data I import is something like this
DOC NO. DOC DEScription status
[Code]....
and as you see I have duplicate documents with different revisions and I want to have the latest last revision only.
I have a 5 column document with about 3000 entries that I need streamlining. THe first column is a student's name, then grade. The next 2 columns are for Honour Roll Standing (A or B) and/or an Effort Honour Roll Standing (E). Finally there is also a "term" column indicating if they received this award is Term 1, 2 or 3.
An example source file is found here: [URL]...
As you can see, there are many students who have received an award in all 3 terms, however there are also some students that only received standing for 1 or 2 terms.
I need to manipulate the data so that there are no duplicate names and all the data regarding Honour Roll standings and which term it occured in are all laid out in one row per student.
I am working on a large data file (leasing file), that has many duplicates. The names on the file are duplicated due to the various variable costs associated with leasing. I need to remove the duplicates names based on the latest contract end date.
Column 1 Column 2 January 1000 January 1234 February 1300 March 1600 January 15 March 123 April 234 January 3000
I would like a formula that adds all the January numbers together returning a result of 5249
To move this one step further i would eventually need to add these numbers based on quarters, for example if the value is January February or March in column 1 then add the numbers in column 2.
I'm sure i have done this before using a countifs maybe but my mind has drawn a blank
I have been creating a schedule on excel, the schedule includes a top row which has the following headings Date, Agent_ID, title, agent_name, 07:00, 07:15, 07:30, etc up until 21:45
The columns that are named with times are times that indicate a break time. The column named title is the actual shift time, eg 08:00 - 17:00.
I need a formula that would look at my source data, and populate a sheet in the following layout
agent_id, agent_name, title, start_time, end_time
The title be one of the following: Shift 08:00 - 17:00 Tea Break 10:00 - 10:15 Lunch Break 12:00 - 12:30 Tea Break 14:15 - 14:30
If I need to have the shift portion and the break portion appear on separate tabs that would also be ok, but ultimately I need to keep my original source as is, but the change it to be able to upload it into a MySQL database.
I need a macro to turn to values all formulas in specific columns only. For example column C, F, I, L,O,...until column UYG, always with the interval of 2 columns.
Option Explicit Dim lastrow As Long, t As Long Sub Method() lastrow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count For t = lastrow To 1 Step -1 If Cells(t, 8).Value <> "" Then If Cells(t, 9).Value = "Y" And Cells(t, 10).Value = "" And Cells(t, 12).Value > _ 6 And Cells(t, 12).Value < 60 Then Range(t, 25).Value = 20 End If Next t End Sub
Alright, the above code is not working. I am not sure if it is the write part (t,25 value) that is wrong. I want the Y column to be written with a method numbered "20" if the conditions (H is not null, J="Y", K="", and 6<M<60). I have numerous other methods to put in. The reason I'm not doing Case Statements is this is jsut to write the basic code, and then I will have to move it over to ReportSmith using ReportBasic.
The below sample is an accurate example of a much larger set of data. Column H will be my desired result.
I need a macro that will look at the matching values (numerical value of month) of Column F, then enter the sum of the corresponding values (rows) contained in Column D for that month. The sum of each month should be placed in Column H at the last value of the row for each particular month.
I need to remove any rows containing "EEE" in the size column.
I also need to remove any discontinued ("D" in the "Type" column)styles that are currently not in inventory. For example 05-5490 does not have any available in either width "D" or "EW" and should be removed; however, 28-112 does have stock and should remain in the spreadsheet. Anything with an "F" in the "Type" column should be left alone.
In the attached, sheet 2 has a formula that pulls the Item (column B) from Sheet 1 based on Instocks (column F) being less than the value in N2. Would it be possible to add a second criteria to the formula in sheet 2? In short, can I pull the item from column B of sheet 1 into sheet 2, where in sheet 1, column F values are less than N2 AND where column G values are greater than O2?
I'd love to just vlookup the fill rate value and then filter it down, I know at some point I will be asked to weed it down a bit via a formula instead.
I have attached an example workbook with a tiny subset of data and a number of criteria from the Dashboard Engine page removed.
What I need is to sum the total value for each division on the second sheet based on the date criteria (so for the first cell Jan 1/2010 - Jan 31/2010) and on a match between division name on the Dashboard Engine sheet table and the Masterdata sheet. I have tried a number of variations but keep getting a 0 for each return.
I have a large spreadsheet where I've successfully ranked a large series of data based on revenue, using product classification as a criteria & summarising this on another page with the top 20 products. The problem I'm having is that within certain criteria's I have some products with the exact same revenue figure, so if the 2nd ranked product within classification "C" for example has revenue of $100, & there's another product within the same classification also with $100 of revenue, on my top 20 report I have results for the 1st & 2nd ranked product, but a blank for the third product & then results again for the fourth
I have the below table of data and what I am looking for is a formula that will count the number for unique numbers (col E) depending on a several criteria. So far I have got this formula but it's not working!
Column B represents 600 prices. (different for each material)
Column C represents 107 materials that are present in column A and have to be removed along with their prices in column B.
Now i want to remove the materials that are in column A and C along with their prices, so i won't damage the order in the file.Meaning if i delete a row in A and shift the other materials up or down, and in the same time column B remains unchanged, the remaining materials will have different prices...and that's not good.
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..
For each unique value of Order Number [col A] + Line Number [col B], I need a program which will locate the first instance of Next Stat [col D] = 530 and the first instance of col D = 540, deleting the other lines. The output will have two lines remaining for each unique col A+B combination, one where col D = 530 and another = 540. The data will always be sorted in date/time order prior to running this program. The actual data set has a varying number of lines, usually 1000+.
I am trying to organize some meteorological data for a project and I ran into a wall, basically I have 3 columns in one there is the date, in one the hour and in the third one the temperature the issue is that in the hour section i have the hour 12:00 that repeats its self , and this goes for the hole year , pretty much every day i have the hour 12:00 that repeats twice , so select for every Monday , Tuesday etc only certain hours.
I have list of data references about 60000 of them but some are duplicated. I have used advanced filted then unique records only. So now i have just the unique records showing now. How do i copy the accounts that is just unique into a new worksheet? I tried copying it but its copying everything. I even tried using paste value but still copying everything?
I have a spreadsheet which contains 2 columns of data, most of which are duplicates.
I'm looking for a macro which will check all of colum A (A2:A138)
against
Column B (B2:B163)
I would like the macro to remove duplicate entries (from column A) in column B so that all that is left in column B are entries which don't match any in column A
I want to retain the row with maximum elements(row 2 in above eg.).
Result should be:
Name Col-1 Col-2 Col-3 Col-4 abc 1 2 3 4
Currently I am doing this manually, by adding countA at the end of each row, then arranging them in descending order. That will make sure that the row with more data comes first n hence gets retained, while other rows gets deleted. Can this be done using Macro?
Below macro just deletes the rows,
Public Sub DeleteDuplicateRows() Dim R As Long Dim N As Long Dim V As Variant Dim Rng As Range
On Error GoTo EndMacro Application.ScreenUpdating = False
I have data in the form of a table. For example a list of duplicate names, each of these names have a corresponding date (lease expiry date). The problem is that the duplicate names have varying dates. So the remove duplicates function does not work because i need to remove the duplicate names with the older dates. I want the latest dates to remain behind.
Data Currently: Solution should be: Sue1/3/2014Mike8/8/2014 Jay25/4/2013Sue1/3/2014 Jay25/4/2013Jay25/4/2013 Mike8/8/2014 Mike8/8/2014 Sue1/3/2014 Sue25/6/2012 Sue1/3/2014 Sue5/7/2012 Jay2/2/2011 Mike5/5/2010
I want to pull the very last odd duplicate. Example below, I want to pull out A3, and C5 and delete the rest. Is there a function that will allow me to do this?
For example,
Column 1 Column 2 A 1 A 2 A 3 B 1 B 2 C 1 C 2 C 3 C 4 C 5 D 1 D 2 D 3 D 4
I'm trying to find out the rule for de-duplicating data. I am removing duplicates based on an identification number in a data set of about 6000 records, including the duplicates (some records appear about 4 times). Due to the nature of the data I'm working with, there are only a handful of records that are "true" duplicates, i.e. some of the records appear 4 times but there is a difference in terms of location, etc and some are true duplicates in that there is no difference.
I need to know how Excel removes duplicates - does it only keep the first line that it finds for that identification number? Also, is there a way that I could create a rule for it to keep the record with the highest rate for example?
