tagging unique items in a list
Before posting this message I read through all the posts for finding and
counting unique entries and tried most of the responses and still have not found a solution that works for my situation. So here goes: I have a spreadsheet with 700+ entries. The records I need to sort on look like this: CMMI2_CM_GP2_08_G CMMI2_CM_GP2_09_P CMMI2_CM_GP2_09_P CMMI2_CM_GP2_09_P_PD_PP_H CMMI2_CM_GP2_10_P_ND_PP_H In the example above the duplicates are CMMI2_CM_GP2_09_P CMMI2_CM_GP2_09_P CMMI2_CM_GP2_09_P_PD_PP_H So when I've tried using Advanced Filter, the two that look exactly the same are filtered out, but the one with the "PD_PP_H" extension is not. [No, that extension cannot be filtered out ahead of time and yes, it is important to the data set]. Now what? Thanks in advance for any suggestions and help. |
