Click on the first row of the list and pull-down:

Data > Filter > Advanced Filter > OK
then select filter the records in place and check unique records only

Only the unique records will be displayed.
 
Gary,

I did the trick you gave it to me, so records suppose drop down, but the
original records was 4,344, after I run it drop down to 4,399, I saw all the
duplicate name is gone, but records was not completely drop, any idea?

The gold is I want to deleted duplicated record on columnA.

Thank you for all the help

Gary,

I run the things you gave it to me, and I saw all the duplicate name on
the columnA is gone, but the records did not drop that much,

Then original record is 4,344, after I run, it drop down to 4,339, only 5
records is different.

The gold is I want to deleted the duplicate record on ColumnA.

Using my method, the duplicated records are hidden, not deleted.

To totally delete the duplicates, first do the filtering as I indicated and
then select column A, copy it and paste it on another worksheet.

The new copy will not include the duplicates. If you want, you can always
take the new copy and paste it back on to the original column.
