How To Check Duplicate Contacts
Aug 29, 2013
I have a workbook with a list of new contacts in one sheet, and a list of old contacts on another sheet.
I want to run a duplicate check throughout the workbook to highlight and delete any contacts on my new list, that have already been contacted on my old list.
Also, I need the the duplicate checker to check for non specific names, regardless of punctuation, upper/lower case, etc.
I need to to highlight all of the following variations as possible duplicates which i can then review & delete manually;
Apple Corp,
Apple Ltd
APPLE LTD
Apple.com
etc...
What I can use to do this?

I have a spreadsheet that will export records when I "click" a button, to a spreadsheet on a network drive.
I would like to attach some code that will check to see if a duplicate record is going to be written to the network drive, and if so, alert the user that they are about to create a duplicate . If it is a duplicate, give the user the option to overwrite the existing record.
Ex. I export the results for account 12345.....Account 12345 is now written to an outside sheet.
User2 logs in and works with customer 12345, w/out knowing that someone has already worked with this account, presses the export button.....This is the trigger point for what I want to happen. At this point when it locates a dupe in the outside spreadsheet it will prompt the user too make some chouces .
find attached the code I would like to attach this to...

I have written some code which asks the using for a name, selcet's a sheet, copy's the sheet, rename's the copied sheet then hide's the original sheet and makes the copied sheet with new name active.
My problem is that I need some sort of code to check for sheets with duplicate names and if true ask the user to rename the sheet or maybe delete the sheet.

I've been assigned to develop a workbook that autopopulates a different workbook but they wanted it so the second macro is never messed with and the information is only entered once. Here is the macro i developed
Code:
Sub Monthly()
Dim wbthis As Workbook
Dim wsthis As Worksheet, wsm As Worksheet
[Code]....
Now The area in red is where the macro writes into the form. My thing is that I want to set up a check so there isn't duplicated entries. This is how the check would work. First it would match up any excisiting entries with JobNo and then check to see if the JobDate was the same. If both are the same then it would check Waste or CutTime, either one would work. If they didn't match, then those cells would be overwritten. If nothing matched then it would put in the new entry.

I have a command button that copies a template worksheet and names it with a date that the user chooses. Problem is, the user can choose the same date more than once. So, I need to have the command button check for all the sheet names, and if it finds a duplicate, prompt the user to enter some text to concatenate to the original sheet name, therefore making it's name unique. My existing code is as follows:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
MsgBox "Please be patient. Creating a new Week Ending sheet can take several minutes!"
Call AddNewWE
End Sub
Sub AddNewWE()..............................

I have a userform that I use for data entry with lots of combo boxes, list boxes and text boxes
One thing i haven't cracked yet is to check for duplicates against two matching fields
If a user (for example) enters 'SAB' (which will be stored in column A) and then 'UK' (which will be stored in column B) and there is already an exact match for both, then I need to inform the user that a matching record already exists
The following is OK: (the dots below are meant to illustrate spaces between the columns!!)
Col(A).....Col(B)
SAB........UK
SAB........USA
SAB........Italy
BUT, if a user then tries to enter:
Col(A).....Col(B)
SAB........UK
I need my userform to register a duplicate entry.
My sub routine is detailed below : .....

I have multiple worksheets of computer equipment, each worksheet is a group/department. Column H is the serial number column and the entries have to be unique. I have managed to create the code below which does find duplicates across worksheets.
When error message pops up about which sheet the duplicate already exists on, the duplicate entry is deleted and the cell is blank but the error checks again and reports the blank existing on another worksheet and then it is stuck in a loop. How can I ignore the blank or null.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim I As Integer
I = Sheets.Count
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("H2:H200")) Is Nothing Then
Do Until I = 0
If Application.IsError(Application.Match(Target, Sheets(I).Range("H2:H200"), 0)) Then
Else
MsgBox "That entry already exists in the " + Sheets(I).Name + " sheet"
Target.ClearContents
End If
I = I - 1
Loop
End If
End Sub

I have a big database of customers, each one has a unique reference number. They are spread accross a bunch of different tabs (21 in total to be exact)
One issue I have had is staff entering a customer whos already in the database, causing a duplicate entry. I dont need excel to tell us where the entry is, just to give some kind of indicator it already exists. I thought I may be able to use data validation/conditionality to turn the cell fill Red when it already exists in the data base.
The reason I think that method would be best, is that the sheets that data is entered on are seperate that the master sheet then pulls the data through from. Its the master sheet that would need to indicate a duplicate has been entered, as thats the only sheet where the entire database can be viewed.

I am trying to merge my boss's contacts. He has one enormous set of contacts in GMail (5000+) and one enormous set of contacts in Excel (5000+) I've exported both sets into excel but how to I merge them?
The headers for each set are in a slightly different order (Home Address, Office Address, Email ...vs.....Office Address, Home Address, Email) Do I need to make sure the order of the headers match in both the GMail Sheet and the Outlook Sheet and is there a faster way to do that than just rearranging them manually?
My second question is how do I merge them? There are a lot of over-laps of people but some info might be different in Outlook than in GMail. For example I might have John Smith as a contact in both Gmail and Outlook but two different email addresses for him under the header "Email 1" how do I make sure one email doesn't eliminate the other? I just want to merge both sets of contact info for each person into one super contact.

Client Id Contact No. Unique Contacts 111123 12 3 111123 12 3 221123 2 2 111123 34 3 111123 5 3 221123 1 2 821123 4 1 221123 2 2
I am trying to calculate the number of unique contacts that each client has made. So in the example above Client No. 111123 has made 3 unique contacts - numbers 12,34 and 5.
However I'm not having any luck - as I suspect it will be a fiendish array formulae. Alternatively I'd settle for some VBA.

I have been trying to use VB to send contacts from contacts.xls to outlook. I have some code from MSDN that shows me how to put in ONE contact (which is already declared in the code). Well I was thinking of writing something to take a worksheet that has x number of contacts and automating x number of contacts. The problem is, I am familiar with using SQL to pull records, but I was thinking there was something easier like importing the excel namespace. So I decided to try it out this way and found this little tidbit of code which is:
Dim xlApp As New Excel.Application
Dim xlBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim xlSheet As Excel.Worksheet
xlApp = New Excel.Application
xlApp.Visible = False
xlBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Open("contacts.xls")
xlSheet = xlBook.Worksheets(1)
'READ FILE HERE
Dim pXLRange As Object
pXLRange = xlSheet.UsedRange
Dim i = 0
Dim j = 0
For i = 1 To UBound(pXLRange, 1)
For j = 1 To UBound(pXLRange, 2)
Debug.Print(pXLRange(i, j))
Next
Next
It gives me this error for the FOR i=1 to UBound line:
Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to class type 'System. Array'. Instances of types that represent COM components cannot be cast to types that do not represent COM components; however they can be cast to interfaces as long as the underlying COM component supports QueryInterface calls for the IID of the interface.
here's the namespaces i have imported:
Imports Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
Imports System.Reflection
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel

Work on a spreadsheet with multiple sheets , that will then be emailed once a month, with different sheets going to different contacts because of our timezone difference.
If a sheet could be used to maintain a list of contacts and which sheet to email out Also in which format PDF, Excel (locked down) or both would be useful.
A button maybe on the contact sheet to start the process / but also with an option to set-up to email on a certain day per month would be good.
the number of contacts at the moment varies between 1 and 4 for each sheet - perhaps , we could set-up to email up to 10 contacts per sheet
The email client is Outlook
Each contact should only receive their sheet and not see any of the other sheets , also the contacts should not be able to alter the spreadsheet at all. hence the possibility of using PDF , but most still would like to see the report in excel format.
there would be about 20 sheets , to go to between 1 and 10 contacts for each sheet
I have attached a dummy workbook , which has 4 example worksheets in
In the real workbook, the worksheet names , also will have spaces in them.
I could setup a Start Sheet and a finish sheet - so that the macro - can go through each worksheet in between , if that offers a solution also a maintenance sheet which has the sheet name , email contacts email address and PDF, Excel or both format.
I have outlook on my PC , so i can play - BUT its not connected via exchange server, if that makes any difference.

I have 2 books right now. Each book has 2 colums of data (See attached jpg.):
Book 1 has a column for "phone number" and another for "street"
Book 2 has a column for "phone number" and another for "house number"
I would like to merge these books together so that all the information I have about these contacts is in the same book. Column A will be the phone numbers, column B will be the street name, and column C will be the house number. As you can see by looking at book 2, I only have house numbers for some of the phone numbers in book 1. My goal here is to have book 2 "look at" book 1, and add any information book 1 does not have (such as house number) to the relevant row (the row where the phone numbers match). This new book will by my book 3. I've attached a jpg. with how book 1 looks, book 2 looks, and how I want book 3 to look.

I have come up the code below. It imports contact information from Outlook contacts in a contact folder called Private Contacts. The below code has been copied and modified from this forum.
As it stands the macro creates a new workbook and places the data on that. What I need it to do is create a new worksheet with the name of private compare on the active workbook and then place the data on that worksheet.

I have a userform that I'm using to add data to a worksheet, with the following
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim OutSH As Worksheet
Set OutSH = Sheets("Sheet1")
OutSH.Cells(nextrow2, 1).Value = Surname.Value
OutSH.cells(nextrow2,2).value = ID.value
OutSH.cells(nextrow2,3).value = Date.value
......
I need to ensure that duplicate entries are not made for the same person on the same date. The ID is unique to each person.
IF statement that can check for a duplicate and then come up with a dialouge box with some custom text, and then exiting the sub?

I feel as though I have spent enough time searching the previous posts to ask this question.
I have a 4 column sheet, column B has many cells with identical data. I want to delete all the rows that that have duplicate data in column B.
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

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
