Duplicate Entries
You can use Advanced Filter to extract unique records. I find it easier
to copy the records (with headings) to a different sheet, then Data |
Filter | Advanced Filter - click on Unique Records only, and if you
want the unique records to be copied to a different location (rather
than In Place) you need to specify the first cell of the range.
Another way is to sort your data (let's say on column A), then
introduce a helper column with this formula in row 2:
=IF(A1=A2,"duplicate","unique")
Copy this down the column, then apply a filter to these values,
selecting "duplicate". Highlight all the visible rows then Edit |
Delete Row. You can set the filter back to "All", then delete the
helper column.
Hope this helps.

I get a report once a month that has duplicate entries. I would like to take
out all the duplicate entries. Is there a formula I can use for this or what
would be the easiest way of taking out the duplicate entries.
