I know how to use the remove duplicates feature in Excel 2010. That is not what I need to do. The remove duplicates feature removes the second and all subsequent duplicate entries. I want to remove *all *of the duplicate rows, including the first duplicated row, leaving *only *rows that did not have any duplicates at all.
(With the implication being you can then use the unique values to make further modifications, perhaps copying only those rows to a new spreadsheet minus the duplicates, etc.)
You can use the conditional formatting feature to highlight all duplicate rows, then filter by cell color from the right click menu, then delete rows from the right click menu:
How can i do this in vba without manually deleting all duplicate rows. Every example i have found so far only deletes the duplicates not the original as well. Thanks
