Excel - remove duplicate rows from a list

I have not got much experience in Excel.Any help appreciated. I开发者_如何学Python have 10-11 csv files , that can be opened in excel. I have duplicate records in all the files.I need to count the unique records in all the files that matches column3(for e.g).

You could link the CSV files from an Access database, then UNION all the tables, that would get rid of any duplicate rows, then a simple query on the UNION would allow you to count rows with specific criteria.

Does that make sense?

try using this formula to identify duplicate and non-duplicate records. Here I'm assuming that all of your data is on one sheet, and the unique value to check for duplicate-iness is col3. Also, Im checking all the way down to row 2000. If you have more rows, change the range in the formula.

=IF(MAX(COUNTIF($C$2:$C$2000,$C$2:$C$2000))>1,"Duplicates","No Duplicates")

No all you gotta do is count how many Duplicates and how many No Duplicates you have.
