Hello Experts

I am wanting to get rid of duplicate entries that are scattered all over the sheet and intend to keep the left-most as a unique value. so far example if there is a name appearing 3 times in the whole data set, I would like to keep the name that appears in the left-most column.

A small sample is attached for your kind reference and expert look: in the example below, I would like to delete the cell/content B13, D17 & E10.

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
