Hi,

I'm trying to automate a really long task I have to preform daily at work with VBA and although I'm almost a complete noob with VBA, I have managed to get majority of it done except for this one last step, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Basically I have a worksheet with 4 columns of data, I'm looking for some code to check the values in column A and if there's a duplicate, merge the duplicates and sum the values only in column D.

Example:

I need something like this..

NUMBERNAMECODEHOURS
1John Smith4108
1John Smith4106
1John Smith4108
2Jane Smith4107
2Jane Smith4107
2Jane Smith4106.5
2Jane Smith4106.5

<tbody>
</tbody>

To turn into this..

NUMBERNAMECODEHOURS
1John Smith41022
2Jane Smith41027

<tbody>
</tbody>


Note: Columns A,B and C will always have the same value if they're a duplicate and only column D needs to be added.


I've found this online but cannot for the life of me work out how to customize it to suite my needs:

Code: 
[COLOR=blue]Sub[/COLOR] test() 
    [COLOR=blue]Dim[/COLOR] a, i [COLOR=blue]As[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]Long[/COLOR], ii [COLOR=blue]As[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]Long[/COLOR], n [COLOR=blue]As[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]Long[/COLOR] 
    a = Sheets("STO REV").Cells(1).CurrentRegion.Value 
    n = 1 
    [COLOR=blue]With[/COLOR] CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary") 
        [COLOR=blue]For[/COLOR] i = 2 [COLOR=blue]To[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]UBound[/COLOR](a, 1) 
            [COLOR=blue]If[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]Not[/COLOR] .exists(a(i, 2)) [COLOR=blue]Then[/COLOR] 
                n = n + 1: .Item(a(i, 2)) = n 
                [COLOR=blue]For[/COLOR] ii = 1 [COLOR=blue]To[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]UBound[/COLOR](a, 2) 
                    a(n, ii) = a(i, ii) 
                [COLOR=blue]Next[/COLOR] 
            [COLOR=blue]Else[/COLOR] 
                a(.Item(a(i, 2)), 5) = a(.Item(a(i, 2)), 5) + a(i, 5) 
            [COLOR=blue]End[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]If[/COLOR] 
        [COLOR=blue]Next[/COLOR] 
    [COLOR=blue]End With[/COLOR] 
    [COLOR=blue]With[/COLOR] Sheets.Add().Cells(1).Resize(n, [COLOR=blue]UBound[/COLOR](a, 2)) 
        .Value = a 
        .Columns.AutoFit 
    [COLOR=blue]End With[/COLOR] 
[COLOR=blue]End Sub[/COLOR][COLOR=blue]
[/COLOR]

Again, any help would really be appreciated

Welcome to the board. This will output the aggregated table under the original:
Code: 
Sub CombineDupes()
    
    Dim x       As Long
    Dim r       As Long
    Dim arr()   As Variant
    Dim dic     As Object
    Const DELIM As String = "|"
    
    Set dic = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
    
    x = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).row
    arr = Cells(1, 1).Resize(x, 4).Value
    
    For x = LBound(arr, 1) + 1 To UBound(arr, 1)
        If dic.exists(arr(x, 1)) Then
            arr(x, 4) = arr(x, 4) + CDbl(Split(dic(arr(x, 1)), DELIM)(2))
        Else
            dic(arr(x, 1)) = arr(x, 2) & DELIM & arr(x, 3) & DELIM & arr(x, 4)
        End If
        dic(arr(x, 1)) = arr(x, 2) & DELIM & arr(x, 3) & DELIM & arr(x, 4)
    Next x
    
    r = UBound(arr, 1) + 2
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    
    Cells(r, 1).Resize(, 4).Value = Cells(1, 1).Resize(, 4).Value
    r = r + 1
    
     For x = 0 To dic.Count - 1
        Cells(r + x, 1).Value = dic.keys()(x)
        Cells(r + x, 2).Resize(, 3).Value = Split(dic.items()(x), DELIM)
        Cells(r + x, 4).Value = CDbl(Cells(r, 4).Value)
    Next x
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    
    Erase arr
    Set dic = Nothing
    
End Sub

Hi Mick
I found your code is very useful for my project, thank you.
Is it possible not to delete the entire row after the execution? (maybe just clear the content instead).

Try changing the last line as below:-
Code: 
[COLOR=#000080]If[/COLOR] Not nRng [COLOR=navy]Is[/COLOR] Nothing [COLOR=navy]Then[/COLOR] nRng.EntireRow.Clearcontents

Hi MickG
Thank you for your reply.
I’ve tried it. but it doesn’t work the way I want it to.
I’d like it doesn’t clear the contents of the entire row, but only those within these columns, and it should also sort the data by column 1.
Hope that you can help. Thank you again.
