Sorry if the title isn't descriptive I honestly had no clue how to quickly say what I'm working on.Hello, thanks very much in advanced for the help. Basically I have a long list with two columns, the first column has a word and the second a string of numbers. I would like to automatically re-arrange it so that any time something from column A is repeated it is removed but it's number string from column B is added to a new column next to the first time the word popped up in column A. Note that I want exact matches only, since there are very similiar word strings in some of column A.
Here is an example; the top is what my data looks like now, and the bottom is what I would like to be able to do with it. I had thought of doing a conditional formatting for repeats and then a pivot-paste kind of thing, but there's about 10000 strings in my sheet so automation would be very helpful.
