Default Eliminating Duplicates in Excel 2007

I have a customer name (Tina) and numbers that go with Tina's information
(575, 125, and 700). How can I find the highest number, and delete the other
numbers as well? I want to find her highest score, and keep it, and then
remove any other numbers.

I tried putting a table in, and then filtering, and finding the highest
number (MAX function) but I still have all her other numbers.

Default Eliminating Duplicates in Excel 2007

Hi,

Sort the data on the Number column in Descending order and then with both
the Name and Number column selected use the Data, Remove Duplicates command,
uncheck Number and click OK.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.
