Which column(s) are you comparing to identify duplicates? If A1 = A2, are
rows one and two duplicates? Or A1 & B1 = A2 & B2? Or A1 & B1 &C1 = A2 & B2 &
C2?
Do you have a header row?

If in a row all cells match another row it would be a duplicate. Even
the header row is duplicated. A1 & B1 &C1... = A2 & B2 & C2... 150
cells per row

Checking for an entire duplicate row is beyond my ability.
If we can check the first several columns in one row against several columns
in another row, we can easily delete duplicates. Might this work?
