Default How can I purge duplicate entries in Excel

I have a large spreadsheet of name and addresses that has many duplicate
rows. Is there a way to remove duplicates without going through and checking
manually?

If you don't mind leaving them in the spreadsheet and just hiding them, you
can use the Data/Filter command.

See Debra Dalgleish's site for tips on removing duplicates via Advanced
Filter.

Quite easy to do.
