Removing Duplicates In One Column And Summarizing Data
Feb 9, 2012
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.
IDEAL COLUMN HEADINGS:
NAME | Grade | Term1 HonourRoll | Term1 Effort | Term2 HonourRoll | Term2 Effort |
etc etc etc

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 would need an excel formula not macro

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

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?

I have several fields in a row that contain names of files e.g. 123.xlsx. Some fields will contain file names that will be duplicates of each other and some will be blank entries (although the blank entries can be changed to a value such as 'n/a' or 'no' etc if required).
I require only the non duplicate values to appear in the final cell, each separated with ';'.
My data is in row 2 of a spreadsheet and in every other column (A,C,E,G,I,K,M...for 45 instances in total).
I have used the following formula to identify the unique values (example below for the first four cells):
=A2&IF(C2=A2,"",","&C2)&IF(OR(E2=A2,E2=C2),"",","&E2)&IF(OR(G2=A2,G2=C2,G2=E2),"",","&G2)
This works well and if there are several blank entries then I use a SUBSTITUTE function to change the multiple ',,,,' to a single ';'. So I only see the unique file names in the final cell, separated with ';'.
However, the above formula becomes longer and longer when each cell is added to it. I have over 40 cells that need to be added and I wondered if there was a better way of doing this?

I run a report each week and would like to combine it with my Updated Members workbook and then remove duplicates.
Is there a way to add this new data (ActiveList.xlsx ) to the last row of data of my (UpdatedMembers.xlsx) Sheet and remove duplicates. (I would like the new additions to stay on the bottom of my original data in the UpdatedMembers sheet, so that I can add notes to their row)
I am still learning my way around excel and all of my attempt to do this have been unsuccessful. how to pull this off.

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

Writing macro for "Removing duplicates with less elements in a row."
I am trying to remove duplicate entries from a file based on the number of data present in a row. Please see below
Example:
Name Col-1 Col-2 Col-3 Col-4
abc 1 3 4
abc 1 2 3 4
abc
abc 1 4
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
[Code] .....

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'm trying to remove duplicates from a worksheet containing customer contact info. the sheet has 9 columns with headings, and the duplicates appear in the last name and phone number column. (the sheet contains no outlines/groups/subtotals.)
i want to remove entries that contain the same last name AND phone number, however when i go to DATA>DATA TOOLS>REMOVE DUPLICATES, and specify the columns i want to remove duplicates from, it keeps deleting an entry that has the same last name, but not the same phone number.
i even tried removing duplicates from only the phone number column, and it still removes the phone number for the entry that has a duplicated last name, even though the phone numbers are different.

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)

Can someone look at the sheet sample? I am trying to turn duplicates into a zero like Ive done in record 1 so that the same tax bill is not counted twice. The records are in rows and if I do a transpose and try to do it by hand it will take forever cause I have hundreds of records.

I incorporated more codes to the ones that were just solved from this board, but how can I make the active cell stay on A1 of sheet "hypo_tax_dropdown"? Also, I obtained the codes for removing the duplicates from macro recording, will these codes work on any machine? I noticed that it doesn't have worksheet.function

I'm trying to remove duplicates without deleting the rows they were in (instead just being left with blank spaces).
For example Column A might look like this:
Column A
1
1
1
1
2
2
2
3
I need it to look like this:
Column A
1
2
3
How I can delete these duplicates without doing it one by one?

I was asked at work to create a report that takes raw data from a questionnaire and compiles it in an easy-to-read report. (Little do they know that this is how I'm such a wiz at excel ;-) )
It seems pretty simple, but I can't seem to figure it out! On the attached workbook, the first spreadsheet,"SUMMARY", is the jist of what the report should look like - the average score for each question by floor. On the next spreadsheet, "RAW DATA", is a sample of what the raw data looks like - just a list of each room number and the score it received by question. the first 2 digits of the room number signify the floor (ex. 201=2nd floor, 1215=12th floor, etc.).
My major issue was with getting the score for each floor without having to manipulate the raw data - this report will eventually become a shell that can be used with new data every month. Is there a way to make a range equal a number (ie. 200-299=2)?

First sheet is comprised of 12 grouped cells. Each group consist of 7 rows and 6 columns
the above mentioned groups are bwoke down with 6 lines of data and 7th row is totals of the 6 boxes.
Each gtoup will have totals, even if they run over to next group
The first column is a task number, which will be the main component. A task number can be used multiple times and can run over to next group of cells
Here is an example of above mentioned sheet
task# Start time end time Description
999.......15:00.......15:05.........Open Mail
999........16:05.......16:55........sort claims
A new task number will move to the next group of cells
748........15:05.......16:05.........23 inches
2nd sheet will be a time tracking sheet. Here is the info from this sheet
999......15:00.....15:05.....open Mail
748.......15:05.....16:05......23 inches
999........16:05.....16:55......sort claims
The 2 sheets look alike but on first mentioned sheet info is broken down by task number

Basically, I need the formula to read the value in cell A and if it is a "1" then the value in Cell G will remain, all other values in cell A will erase the values in cell G.

I'm stumped on what I know is a pretty basic problem. Maybe i'm just trying to over think it.
I have a table of sales data...One field is the date it was sold, one field is the amount it sold for. The date field isn't in order and it contains dates over the past 12 months. I need a way to total the amount of sales in each month and not through a pivot table. I am able to count how many entries there are, but I can't find a easy way to do a count of how much was sold in each month.

I am using Excel 2007 on Windows 7. I would like to remove duplicates as follows: If column A = column A, column B = column B, and the two rows are within one hour of each other, then remove all duplicates, leaving one instance of the row. As you can see, sometimes the duplicates are right next to each other, and sometimes have rows between them. (Rows 1 & 2, Rows 30 & 32). Even though this sample doesn't show it, sometimes there can be tens of duplicates within an hour, not just two.

I have a spreadsheet with 12 tabs, 1 for each month in the year. On each tab I have employee names (column A), followed by the premium they pay for their health insurance (column B). I'm attemting to create a list of each employee and how much they paid for helath insurance over the year. Since employees come and leave thorughout the year, the lists aren't the same on each tab. However, I was able to create a master list of all possible employees and placed this list into a new tab.
I'm vaguely farmiliar with the SUMIF function and I believe that this would be the best approach, or some possibly sort of vlookup.
