I have an excel spreadsheet with over 19,000 contacts. Some are duplicates
(Contact) and I would like delete them. The columns across the top are as follows: Company/Contact/Phone1/Zip/Address/City/Acct Manager/Record Type Can someone please write a macro, or tell me how to delete the duplicates for Column B? |

deleting duplicate names
Hi Chris,
You can use Filtering to delete duplicate based on one column, you would have to use a helper column to use filtering and not use a macro. Filter Unique Records http://www.contextures.com/xladvfilter01.html#FilterUR You might also look at Chip Pearson's page on duplicates subtopic -- Tagging Duplicates http://www.cpearson.com/excel/duplic...gingDuplicates and two video presentations on duplicates as an explanation of formulas at http://www.datapigtechnologies.com/ExcelMain.htm --- HTH, David McRitchie, Microsoft MVP - Excel [site changed Nov. 2001] My Excel Pages: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/excel.htm Search Page: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/search.htm "chris" wrote in message ...
