Flag Earliest Dup
Hi. I'm trying to flag duplicates in my data. My data is a download from a
web form, so I have captured the "submit time" from the web. My data looks like this: Jim Blue Mon Oct 4 13:15:27 EDT 2004 Jim Red Mon Oct 4 13:15:27 EDT 2004 Jim Orange Mon Oct 4 13:18:27 EDT 2004 Jim Green Mon Oct 4 13:18:27 EDT 2004 Bob Blue Mon Oct 4 13:15:27 EDT 2004 Bob Red Mon Oct 4 13:15:27 EDT 2004 Bob Orange Mon Oct 4 13:18:27 EDT 2004 Bob Red Mon Oct 4 13:18:27 EDT 2004 and so on. Each individual may have more than one entry (with the same submittal time). So for example, Jim submitted his form with 2 entries Red and Blue. He then realized he screwed up, and resubmitted Orange and Green 3 minutes later. I am trying to flag BOTH the earlier time submittals of Red and Blue and highlight them. Can this be done? Thanks for helping! |
