    Question Problems making a sheet for Parent SKU titles.

    I am trying to build a sheet that will help my company write Parent SKU titles. I have a list of Parent sku's and titles, but i want to Narrow it down to one row/title for each parent sku and work from that. Does anybody know of a formula to delete the extra rows from this sheet? I have tried deleting duplicates, but it will not remove entire rows.
    Attached is an example of what i am trying to do. Sheet 1 is what i am starting with, sheet 2 is what i would like in the end.
    Thank all of you in advance for the help!

    You just need to select both columns when doing the Delete Duplicates. Then make sure only Parential SKU column is checked.

    Hi Andrew,

    How about using a comma, dash and colon as the breaker in the string with this kind of formula:
    =LEFT(B2,MIN(IFERROR(FIND("-",B2),100),IFERROR(FIND(",",B2),100),IFERROR(FIND(":",B2),100))-1)
    and then group/pivot by this? See the attached: Left of special characters Parts.xlsx
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.
