It is a known fact that Microsoft Excel is one of the most used spreadsheet program while there are also other alternative programs like Google Sheets. You can make use of both Excel and Google Sheets whether you have to create a 5-column spreadsheet or a 50-column one. So if you have a spreadsheet containing hundreds of the same values in different rows, you can now get rid of them in both Excel and Google Sheets with just a simple trick. Usually, we receive spreadsheets containing tons of multiple duplicate rows – this happens when you merge two or more Excel sheets – so instead of getting rid of these duplicate rows one by one manually, you can save all the trouble and time in doing so through the use of this simple trick.
Getting rid of all the duplicate rows in Microsoft Excel is not that difficult of a task as Excel comes with a built-in functionality. To remove all these duplicate rows from both Microsoft Excel and Google Spreadsheets, follow the given instructions below.
For Microsoft Excel:
Step 1: To start, you have to create the Excel spreadsheet.
Step 2: Next, go to the Data tab and click on the Remove Duplicates button.
Step 3: After that, you will be asked to select the column/s where the duplicate rows are placed.

Note: If you are not sure where these duplicate rows are located, you can simply one row at a time or select all the rows if you don’t really know what you’re doing.
For Google Sheets:
Before you start with Google Sheets, take note that since Google Sheets does not have any built-in functionality unlike Microsoft Excel, you will have to seek the help of a Google Chrome extension known as “Remove Duplicates”. To install this extension, open up your Google Drive account and then install it. After that, proceed with the steps below.
Step 1: Open your desired spreadsheet and click on Add-ons.
Step 2: Next, select on the extension you just downloaded, Remove duplicates and then Find duplicates or uniques.

Step 3: After that, you have to select the range of the table. To simply put it, you can select the columns and rows range.
Step 4: Look for the duplicates, exclude the first instances and then select the Duplicates.
Step 5: Then select the column title and click on Next.

Step 6: In this step, you have to select the option “Delete rows within selection”.
Step 7: All the duplicate rows will be removed right away once you click the Finish button.
And that’s about it.
Note: When you use this Google Chrome extension, “Remove Duplicates”, you have to take note that for instance, if you have the same names of items in Column A, a number of times, and you have different name of items in Column B, it will be quite a mess. But if you know how to handle it, everything will work out.
