Hi all
So I've gone through a sheet of records for a mailing list, deleting about 5k records from a list of 15k. Now I've got the original list of 15k, and a 'cleaned' list with 10k names. What I want is a list of the 5k names I deleted.
I've tried copying the 15k list and the 10k list onto the same spreadsheet, so now roughly 20k of those 25k records are duplicates, and the remaining 5k are the ones I want. Now I want to remove the duplicate records as well as the originals that were duplicated.
I thought I was onto something with the Advanced Filter button, which has a checkbox called "unique records only". But apparently that also leaves one of the two duplicate records on display, just as the "remove duplicates" button does.
Any suggestions?
Edit: BTW, the COUNTIF function apparently only applies to cells, not entire rows. And I need the entire ROW to be matching (I have records where the name cell is identical, but address cells aren't, etc, and those need to be treated as entirely different records).
