Using Excel as part of XP Professional, I am trying to find Duplicat
entries. I have five columns of data as exampled below:
Tape - Index - Asset - Duplicate - [Other entries]
DT1 - 1 - AN1 - Duplicate
DT2 - 1 - AN2 - Duplicate
DT1 - 3 - AN1 - Duplicate
DT6 - 5 - AN1 - Duplicate
DT6 - 4 - AN2 - Duplicate
DT7 - 2 - AN3 - Unique
The "Duplicate" column is essentially a check of which items in colum
3 (the "Asset" column) are unique. IE since there is only one instanc
of "AN3" the entry is "Unique". Since there are two copies of "AN2" th
entry says "Duplicate", and so on.
Here's the problem. If Column 4 "Duplicate" contains the wor
"Duplicate" I need to display - in a fifth column "[Other Entries]"
ALL tape numbers in column 1 ("Tape") that have exactly the same entr
in Column 3 ("Asset"). For example, in the table above, if taking AN
as an example:
Tape - Index - Asset - Duplicate - Other Entries
DT1 - 1 - AN1 - Duplicate - DT1 DT6
DT2 - 1 - AN2 - Duplicate - DT2 DT6
Possibly a macro of some kind which highlights duplicate entries woul
suffice...I cannot think of a way around this. Does anyone have an
ideas?
Thanks in advance!
