I have an Excel spreadsheet that contains names, addresses, etc. But, the spreadsheet also contains duplicate names, addresses, etc.

What's the easiest way to delete the duplicates?

I also have a spreadsheet that has fields like: name of donor, address, phone#, meat, product, dairy, & etc. This spreadsheet keeps track of the donations made by the donor on specific dates like 20 May 11, 21 May 11, 25 May 11, 27 May 11 and what they donated.

I am utilizing some sort of the query right now that gives me a list of the donors and the summary (combination) of all their donations. And it works! But I have to set up an output area for each individual donor. I have only 100 donors and its okay to set up 100 individual output areas. But, if I have 1,000 donor, I do not want to set up 1,000 individual output areas.

I hope this makes sense.

Is there an easier way to do the above like perhaps a FOR NEXT situation?.

Thanks,

Dan Banez

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
Excel 2007/2010 only.

Select your data and go: Data tab -> Remove Duplicates button. Select column which must contain duplicates and press OK.
