  • In this step by step tutorial we'll use several Excel functions to remove duplicate values from a single cell in Excel. We'll use the following functions (available in Microsoft 365): =TRIM, =TEXTJOIN, =UNIQUE, =TOCOL, =SORT, =IF, AND =COUNTIF.
    We'll combine these in addition to the process I used for analyzing select all that apply survey data when those responses export into a single column. • How to Analyze Select-...

      It is long! I bet there’s an easier way with VBA I just don’t know how 🤷🏼 thanks for watching!

    What formula we have to apply if there is blank in between words and digits in cells for splitting that values

    • @SpotlightImpact
      @SpotlightImpact  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You’ll want to check out the =TRIM function for that.

    What if, we only have one column and need to highlight those with the first 5 matching characters on the same column?

    • @SpotlightImpact
      @SpotlightImpact  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      You'll likely want to use the LEFT function to first spit out a new column with the first five characters of your source colum www.customguide.com/excel/excel-left-function - after that though I'd have to sit with it more to figure out how to match or highlight. You might want look up the INDEX and MATCH functions, those could be of use here too.

    this is only feasible if you have a relatively small data set, what if you are dealing with hundreds of unique data sets ? is there a video tutorial you can suggest?

      I will do some sleuthing to see what I can find. I may also back into some of the Miss Excel Exeleraror course to see if she’s got any tricks about this one - it might involve creating some VBA behind the scenes. links.miss-excel.com/exclusive?ref=nick91

    Thats what ive been looking for but the problem is it removes the first dupicate i would need the 2nd duplicate to be deleted 💀Good job tho most people only show the way to remove duplicate columns lol.

    my dataset has cells like this N2 = IndiaIndiaIndia, N3 = GermanyGermanyGermanyGermany, and further, the repetition of country names together isnt constant, some cells have more than 6 repetition. i want to know how i can solve it to make it come up once like N2 = India, N3 = Germany. I am trying to get each character and match, i think i need a for loop which is not in excel which am realizing it now while writing this comment.

    • @SpotlightImpact
      @SpotlightImpact  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That one's a tough one - do you have a full list of the unique countries used? My first thought might be to use the "LEFT" function which returns a set number of characters from a string of text. For call N2 with IndiaIndiaIndia in 02 you would type =LEFT(N2,5) and that would return "India". That will only work for countries with 5 characters in their name though there's still a lot of manual cleaning involved I think. I'll have to noodle on this one and see if there's a good solution to post. Thanks for the question.

      You might also try using Flash Fill which will work for any country name that starts with a capital letter and only includes one word. th-cam.com/video/hKb6QLHjD8c/w-d-xo.html
