Sorting Within One Cell + Eliminate Repeats

Jul 12, 2007

Cell 1 has 1,2,3,4,5
Cell 2 has 2,4,5,7,9

While combing them into one cell, there will be no repeat of the same number. So the outcome would be

1,2,3,4,5,7,9

The main point here is to merge the two cells together and eliminate the repeated numbers and sorting the numbers in a cell. Or if anyone knows series of steps not just one function to get to this.

Sorting Data With Blanks Instead Of Repeats

Feb 15, 2010

I have a sheet with 12k plus lines of data... Attached is a sample.

I am trying to sort by any one of the column headings, without losing the order of the ADDRESS field.. Sometimes there are 2 lines, sometimes there are 3 lines of ADDRESS... Also, the first column, "DBA" has 2 lines sometimes 3 lines per entry... When I try to sort, it tells me I have to unmerge the cells.. but then when i sort, it alphebetizes everything seperatley so the addresses get splut up...

Eliminate Rows Where Cell Contains Something That Is Not A Number

Jan 25, 2013

I have a long list of days and the flight hours of a helicopter in each day. The first two columns are the Date and Flight Hours, at the end of each month there is a space and a cell that says "Total" and may contain other words.

I want to delete every row in which the Flight Hours column contains a 0, a word, or anything that is not a number. This way only the days in which the helicopter has been active will show.

So far I have written a code that deletes every row where there is a 0 in the Flight Hours column, but i would like to delete everything that is not a number, such as a string value, a blank cell, etc...

Eliminate Duplicates And Alphabetize The Rest Within A Cell

Aug 31, 2009

****** http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">****** name="ProgId" content="Word.Document">****** name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 11">****** name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 11"> Hello good people.

I tried to search back through old threads and could not find the answer, so this is what I am trying to do.

I would like to eliminate the duplicate items within a particular cell and alphabetize the remaining items.

For example,
Currently:
South Atlantic, East South Central, South Atlantic, Pacific, Mountain, New England, East South Central,

Wanted result:
East South Central, Mountain, New England, Pacific, South Atlantic,

I’d do it manually, but at current rate, it looks like it will take me about 86 hours

SUMIFS Only UNTIL The Number Repeats

Apr 8, 2014

I have the following figures in my spreadsheet and I have been trying to use SUMIFS. However, I don't want to count values in a continuous way, rather than that, I need to count the values ONLY until the number that is being counted repeats.

Example: Spreadsheet from Column Q1 to Column Q6:

Q1 Controlling
Q2 8
Q3 8
Q4 8
Q5 8
Q6 8

On this case, the Excel would count the number 8 five times in this array. However, If there were more number just below the number 8, it would count them as well and that's not what I am looking for.

Q1 Controlling
Q2 8
Q3 8
Q4 8
Q5 8
Q6 8
Q7 5
Q7 8

What do I need is not to count them when the number being counted has stopped to appear eventhough it can be found at Q7.

For my needs the answer should be that the number 8 was counted 5 five times rather than 6.

Identify Repeats Of Data

Dec 29, 2006

I have four columns of numbers that range between 1 through 44 and span 100 rows. Each row shows a unique combination as shown below:

Row 1 - 07 18 11 09
Row 2 - 03 29 08 05
Row 3 - 01 20 11 44
Row 4 - 09 17 14 24
Row 5 - 18 11 20 26
etc...

Can anyone give me some tips on creating a VBA script that will scan a hundred rows of the data shown above and identify for me the rows where number pairs and number triples repeat? For example the data above shows that the pairs "18 , 11" repeat on Row 5 and Row 1. Can EXCEL perform such a task with the right VBA script or forumula? Is a VBA script necessary or will using an ARRAY be the correct way?

XL07 List Box Fill With No Repeats

I have a list of 1's, 2's, 3's, and 4's and I only want 1, 2,3,4 showing up as well as any additional numbers added to the list.

Re-Post - Data Repeats In Pivot Table

Jun 21, 2008

I don't believe my earlier post was a duplicat thread. I posted the original thread, then posted a LINK to the original thread. I didn't even ask the question in the link, so there was no way someone would have wasted time answering the question from there. I didn't think I was breaching protocal. Anyway, since both instances of the thread were closed, here is the re-post.

I've recently been trying to learn a little about pivot tables. In the example attached, I have 2 worksheets. One holds raw data collected from suppliers, the other holds a default pivot table created from that data.

Find Minimum Number In Given Set Of Numbers Without Repeats

Dec 24, 2011

So i need a way to find the minimum number in a given set of numbers without there being multiple minimums. For example if you had 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 the minimum would be 1. If however you had 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5....i want excel to recognize there are multiple minimums (two 1's) and produce a warning (i realize this probably needs to be coupled with an if statement).

Transpose Multiple Columns Into Rows Based On Repeats

Jul 9, 2009

I need to transpose a three column worksheet with thousands of rows containing repeats based on the value in Column A (between 2 and 11 consecutive repeats), into rows with no repeats, and the values from the repeated rows into new columns. Column A has a unique numeric value corresponding to the repeated rows. Column B has 1 of 11 values and Column C has 1 of 4 values.

The worksheet looks like this:

1 abc x
1 def y
2 ghi x
2 abc n
2 lmn x
2 def z
2 jkl y

I need to make it look like this:

1 abc x def y
2 ghi x abc n lmn x def z jkl y

I tried using the following code, but it dropped all the values from column C:

Sub kTest()
Dim a, i As Long, w(), k(), n As Long
Dim dic As Object, ws As Worksheet, s As String

Set dic = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
dic.comparemode = vbTextCompare
With Sheets("sheet1")
a = . Range("a2:b" & .Range("a" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
End With

I am attaching a workbook " Book 1" that has the results from the above macro in the first worksheet "Final Report", the origninal data "orig data", and the format I need to get the data into "needed data".

Cannot Eliminate Value Error

Nov 12, 2008

Hello, I am trying to update a person's finances for this past year. She sent me a workbook that has two sheets with macros. The first sheet is linked to the 2nd. When a name and number is typed into the first sheet it automatically shows up on the 2nd.

My problem is, no matter what number I change on the first sheet under amount, the Total cell on the 2nd sheet gives me the #Value error. I have not changed anything, have not deleted any formulas but no matter what I do, that value error always shows up. I know very little about excel but I thought I knew enough to be able to update this book for her. Is there a special way I should be inputting the numbers on the first sheet so that the value error will show the running total instead of an error?

Eliminate Loops

One of the multitude of areas where I still need drastic improvement is with efficiency. Specifically, avoiding loops.

Are any of you aware of any good, basic level sites, blogs, posts, etc., about better methods or processes? I'm not particularly experienced with programming (I've been a software TESTER for 13 years and just started some programming in recent months), so the more basic the better.

Eliminate Duplicate Entries WITHIN A Row

Feb 8, 2010

I have a table of data like this:

A , 1 , 1
B , 2 , 1
C , 3 , 4
D , 1 , 3
E , 3 , 3

I need to eliminate duplicate entries WITHIN a row. So, I need the table to become:

A , 1
B , 2 , 1
C , 3 , 4
D , 1 , 3
E , 3

Is there an easy way to do this for a large sample? Also, there are actually more like 8 columns of this data, if thats important.
