    Post an xlsx file, since you are using excel 2007.
    Notice my main language is not English.

    Re: Remove Duplicate Rows comparing entries in a single column

    On which criteria the rows need to be deleted.

    I do not see the expected result in your file.



    Edit, maybe this formula will do

    H2 =IF(countif($B$2:$B$44,$B2)=countif($B$2:$B2;$B2),"","delete") and drag down.

    after that filter on column H and choose delete, after that delete those rows.

    Dear Sir,

    If any record of column "UNIQUE_ID" is duplicate, the entire row need to be removed.

    The formula provided by you is not working.

    Thank You.

    If all records in the row needs to be the same you can use this one below.

    H2 =A2&B2&D2&E2&F2&G2

    G2 =IF(countif($H$2:$H$44,$H2)=countif($H$2:$H2,$H2),"","delete")
