    I use remove duplicates a lot but I think I like the unique fx better. Power query is great for big data sets. Another great tutorial for daily use in excel. TFS! Have a great day!

    Hi Leila. Great tips for removing duplicates from a data set. A fourth option is to use Advanced Filter and check "unique". These days, the UNIQUE function and Power Query are the goto methods for maximum flexibility and for dynamic results. Good to know many methods though. Did I get the job? Haha!! Thanks for the video :)) Thumbs up!! PS - Great reminder about case sensitivity in Power Query vs. other methods.. easy to forget that distinction.

    One little note about PQ case - you don't need to add a step..... you can add second argument of Table.Distinct function.
    In this case it will be something like this below.
    = Table.Distinct(#"Changed Type", Comparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase)

    Many use existing files as templates þo create new. Example is purchase or delivery orders etc. Over time the size of the files becomes huge and slow to open. Copying cells and pasting to another new excel workbook destroys the format.
