Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
In column C, enter formula:
Code:
=--(A1=B1)
Drag the formula to the last row
Filter for values of 1
Delete those rows
Remove filter and delete column C

Test on a copy of your data if unsure
