Deleting duplicate entries in Excel list

[Guest]

I work with a list of about 3500 entries in Excel that is updated every 2
weeks. Is there any way to easily delete out duplicate entries without
manually sorting the list and deleting them one at a time?

Data>Filter>Advanced Filter.

Check "unique records only" and "copy to a new location".

You can copy to another worksheet if you wish.

See Debra Dalgleish's site for more info with pictures.

Data -> Filter -> Advanced Filter... -> check unique records only
if you filter in-place, you can later unfilter
if you copy to a new distination, the duplicates are really deleted
