Default Identifying complex duplicates


Without supplying an exact solution, consider the following approach a
a set of macros:

1) Sort entire table as descending amount
2) turn on autofilters for all columns
3) start with the first data row, moving down towards the last row o
each iteration
4) extract the date value on the current row.
5) turn on a filter for that date only
6) set the first result row as yes, the others as no
7) undo the autofilter selection by date
8) increment your selection row, go back to 4)

Of course, add in needed error checking etc to deal with faulty data
