Hi there,

I am trying, with no luck, to create a VBA macro in Excel that will
delete rows with data duplicated in 2 columns. Column A has ID
numbers and Column B has Dates. I need to delete rows that have
duplicate ID No. AND Date and leave the other rows on the worksheet.

I have tried Chip Pearson's code which works well however it doesn't
allow for the dates in column B so it considered the latest date to be
the record to leave and deletes the rest.

Sub DeleteTheOldies()
Dim RowNdx As Long
For RowNdx = Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row To 2 Step -1
If Cells(RowNdx, "H").Value = Cells(RowNdx - 1, "H").Value Then
If Cells(RowNdx, "I").Value <= Cells(RowNdx - 1, "I").Value
Then
Rows(RowNdx).Delete
Else
Rows(RowNdx - 1).Delete
End If
End If
Next RowNdx
End Sub

Example - Befo

ID No. Date
123456 1-2-07
123456 1-2-07
123456 2-2-07
123456 2-2-07
123456 3-2-07
123456 3-2-07

Example - After:

ID No. Date
123456 1-2-07
123456 2-2-07
123456 3-2-07

Any advice will be greatly appreciate. Many thanks.
