x = y.Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
With y
.Cells(x + 1, "B").Value = TextBox1.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "c").Value = TextBox2.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "D").Value = TextBox3.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "E").Value = TextBox4.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "F").Value = TextBox5.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "G").Value = TextBox6.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "H").Value = TextBox7.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "I").Value = TextBox8.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "J").Value = TextBox9.Text
.Cells(x + 1, "K").Value = TextBox10.Text

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Hi,
welcome to the forum.

I assume that one of your columns holds a unique entry maybe something like staff ID? if so, can you let us know which column it is otherwise, explain a little further which data you need to check for duplicates

How are you defining "duplicate". Is there a column where a duplication of that one column makes the whole record a duplicate? Or must all the the columns entries be the same in order to be considered a duplicate?

Yes, its ID.No with textbox1 which is in B column.

Hi,
untested but try this update to your code & see if helps

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Dim c As Integer, i As Integer, CheckColumn As Integer
    Dim x As Long
    Dim CheckDuplicate As String
    Dim y As Worksheet
    
    Set y = Sheets("PRC Training Database")
    
'value you are checking
    CheckDuplicate = Me.TextBox1.Text
'column you are checking
    CheckColumn = 2
    
    c = 1
'check for duplicate entery
    If Not Application.CountIf(y.Columns(CheckColumn), CheckDuplicate) > 1 Then
'get next blank row
    x = y.Range("B" & y.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
'loop each textbox control
    For i = 1 To 48
'column counter
        c = c + 1
'if column no > 10 then every odd no add 1 to column counter
        If i > 10 And i Mod 2 = 1 Then c = c + 1
'enter textbox value to range
        y.Cells(x, c).Value = Me.Controls("TextBox" & i).Text
    Next i
    Else
'duplicate - inform user
        MsgBox CheckDuplicate & Chr(10) & "Duplicate Entry", 48, "Duplicate"
    End If
End Sub
