Deleting duplicating rows

Hi,

Say I have 2 columns: Insurance Policy Holder ID & Claim No.

If the Insurance Policy Holder ID & Claim No. both repeat in 2 rows, I would like to delete one of them.

If the Insurance Policy Holder ID repeats in 2 rows but the Claim No. in each row is unique, I would like to keep both.

Is there anyway to do both in the same spreadsheet?

hi sampahmel, welcome to the forum. since you are using Excel 2003, try putting formulas to assist you. assuming your columns are in A & B, try this in C:
=SUMPRODUCT((A$2:A2=A2)*(B$2:B2=B2))
Autofilter the columns & filter column C is >=2. you can delete all of these

in Excel 2007 & above, go to Data-> Remove Duplicates. Check the option that "My data has headers". Check both the "Insurance Policy Holder ID" & "Claim No" to indicate that it is only considered a duplicate when the both duplicated.
