In an adjacent column, and assuming that the name is in column A, version in
F, add this formula =F1=MAX(IF($A$1:$A$1000=A1,$F$1:$F$1000)) it is an array formula, so commit with Ctrl-Shift-Enter. Copy the formula down for all relevant rows. Filter Column F (DataFilterAutofilter), select a value of False, then delete visible rows. -- HTH Bob Phillips "dc" wrote in message ...

Got it. Put this formula in some spare column, say G3
=D3=MAX(IF($A$3:$A$1000=A3,$D$3:$D$1000)) then as before, copy the formula down for all relevant rows. Filter Column F (DataFilterAutofilter), click the dropdown arrow, select the value of False, then delete visible rows. -- HTH Bob Phillips "dc" wrote in message ...
