I have a database of addresses that contain duplicates. Example is 12 ball
st., and 12 ball street. I need to delete these if they are the same.

thanks

The bad news is that st. and street may be the same to you, but they're not the
same to a mechanical routine (like a worksheet function or VBA code).

I think if I had to do this, I'd try to cleanse the data first.

And that could take a lot of time.
