Combining and merging duplicate data.
Darren,
A couple of steps.
1. Create your unique list of parts.
Select your parts list, the top row must be a header, then
Data|Filter|Advanced filter
Select copy to another location
Check unique items only
Enter a location to copy to (a single cell) I'm going to use D1
Click OK and you should now have a list of unique items.
2. This in E1 and drag down to get your totals
=SUMIF($A$1:$A$5,D1,$B$1:$B$5)

I have a list of two columns consisting of part number and quantity, some of
the lines contain duplicate part numbers.
Example
Part Number Qty
311 10
311 5
312 20
313 5
313 5
Is there any way I can merge the duplicate part numbers into one line whilst
combining the quantites to read as follows?
Part Number Qty
311 15
312 20
313 10
Have a very large database to work through and this would make my life a lot
easier :0)
