I can't use xlbb add-in since my company disabled add-ins. I have a list of companies that I need to clean up the duplicates. Some company names are very similar or have a comma or period in the name or some other extra value. How can I remove them easily. I think the best way would be if the first 4 or 5 letter values match then remove it.

American Battery Metals CorporationAmerican

American Battery TechnologyAmerican
2​
American Finance Trust, Inc.American
3​
American Public Education, Inc.American
4​
Black Diamond GroupBlack

Black Hills Corp.Black
