    Remove Duplicates from Range

    I am looking for a way to remove duplicates from a specific range. I have read about the .RemoveDuplicates function in VBA but it doesn't seem to be what I need. In one row I may have a cells that include the following:
    CHICKEN,SOUP,DOG,LOVER,SOUL,DRY,DOG,FOOD,ADULT,DOG
    I would like this macro to clear cell contents of any duplicate values so that there is only one. The desired output of this example would be:
    CHICKEN,SOUP,DOG,LOVER,SOUL,DRY,FOOD,ADULT
    For simplicity's sake lets say that these cells are A1:J1

    I will have this formula loop through thousands of ranges and I can customize that but for now all I need is to know how to remove duplicates within rows without deleting entire rows or columns, just clearing cell contents of duplicates.

    Thanks!

    Clears the duplicate contents.

    Or deletes and shifts

    Perhaps try, assuming "," is the separator

    Cool Hi ! Try this ‼


    Another way with a single loop and MATCH Excel function :

    PHP Code: 
    Sub Demo()
        
    With [A1:J1]
            
    VA = .Value
            ReDim ND
    $(1 To UBound(VA2)):  ND(1) = VA(11):  L& = 1
        
            
    For C& = 2 To UBound(VA2)
                If 
    IsError(Application.Match(VA(1C), ND0)) Then L 1ND(L) = VA(1C)
            
    Next
            
            
    .Value ND
        End With
    End Sub
