In an adjacent column, and assuming that the name is in column A,
version
in
F, add this formula

=F1=MAX(IF($A$1:$A$1000=A1,$F$1:$F$1000))

it is an array formula, so commit with Ctrl-Shift-Enter.

Copy the formula down for all relevant rows.

Filter Column F (DataFilterAutofilter), select a value of False, then
delete visible rows.

I have a sheet with many rows and i need to filter out old versions of
the
row in questions,

example

Mr Smith blah blah aaa bbbb cccc 1
Mr Smith blah blah bbb ccccc 2
Mr Smith aaa bbbb ccc 3

In other words each row is a version on what ever im looking at, How
do
i
get rid of the old versions i.e. number 1 and number 2 and keep
version
3
??

Hope this explains it ok

regards
