Hello All,
I am trying to find solution for my problem. Searched into this forum for Duplicates topic, no luck for my problem.
I have sheet contains the below info as Table 1 (this is just an example, I have 3000 rows and 15 columns in my sheet). I am looking for Outcome 1 and 2 as example below. Any help is really appreciated.
For outcome 1, I have tried removing the duplicates from column <Header 1> it removes everything and keep unique value as one set. I don't want that result i would like to keep the position in same place after removing the duplicates, i don't know how to do it.
For outcome 2, I have tried to looking to vlookup and hlookup option, it did not worked out.

Table 1:
Header 1Header 2 (Parameters)Header 3 (1M)Header 4 (6M)Header 5 (12M)Header 6 (24M)
Patient 1Wt505575100
Patient 1Length9095110140

Patient 3Length808590105
Patient 3Cholesterol10mg/dl15mg/dl20mg/dl30mg/dl
Patient 3Blood Test+ve+ve+ve-ve

[Outcome 1] in one sheet:
Remove the duplicates from <Header 1> Column and keep only one row.

Hi Dante,
Please ignore my previous question. When i read your Macro, i was able to figure out that <Sheet2> is not present in my workbook.
Also, I understood your suggestion that not to remove the duplicates from Column <Header 1>.
Is it possible to have removing the duplicates and filtering from column <Header 1> and get right side all the rows from <Header 2> to <Header 6> Columns.
Let me know if it is doable.

Thanks
Anu.

Excel Facts

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
Try the change I put in post # 10, with that your original requirement will work.
For your new requirement put the example of the result that you want. use XL2BB tool, look at my signature.

No I am not using all the column. I meant my main used columns do not have any empty cells.

Thx
Anu.
So reread my instructions. Say your last used "main" column is P. In column Q, put the numbers from 1 to whatever the bottom cell of your data is. Then sort by column B.Then run your macro, copmaring each cell in B with the next cell in B and clear it. Then Sort by column Q. Then clear column Q.

Hi Dante,
Not sure about the difference after I add your suggestion from Post#10. I did not see the differences. May be I am not able to identify it. Your original suggestion works fine. Thank You.
For my new question, it is same as what I mentioned in the examples, only difference is after I remove the duplicates, If I select the cell value from Column A, i am not getting respective rows (Wt, Length & Blood Test) from Column <Header 2> to <Header 6>.
I hope this is clear, If not i can prepare separate sheet.

Thx & Best Regards
Anu.
