Deleting Duplicate Cells in one Column.
 

I have a list of numbers in Column A, Cells 1 through 1607. I need to delete
the duplicate cells. How can I do this? I have read previous posts
regarding this but I do not understand. I am a beginner at Excel. Thanks!!

Jamie,

Do you want to get rid of all instances of duplicates, or leave the first instance and get rid of
the remainders?

Jamie,

Insert a new column, and use the formula
=COUNTIF($A$1:A2,A2)=1

in row 2 of the new column, and copy down to match your list. Then copy that column and paste
special values to convert the formulas to values.

Then select your entire block of data, sort based on the column with the new list, select all the
cells with FALSE, and use edit / delete... / entirerow

It worked perfectly for me. Even when the source column was not
sorted.
