Data Set

Status Name ID Trans Date Type
Current JONES, BOB 1234 123 main Street 7/1/2017 (2)
Current JONES, BOB 1234 124 main Street 7/1/2018 (2)
Current JONES, BOB 1234 125 main Street 7/1/2018 (2)
Current JONES, BOB 1234 126 main Street 7/1/2019 (2)
Current JONES, BOB 1234 127 main Street 9/1/2020 (2)

I need to delete the all transactions except the most recent one. Is there a macro for that? TIA


Bet the old fricker isn’t even asking the question that he needs: where it is the most recent transactions of each ID #

Go to your Excel spreadsheet. Type alt + f4 then press enter when a prompt window pops up. Problem solved.

Last transaction could be from 2018 so doing that would delete what i need.

Home Tab --> Custom Sort

Under "Column", choose Date. Under "Order", choose "Newest to Oldest"

You now should be able to select and delete everything except the top row.
