Hi @gankita181 ,

 

What you can do in this instance is use a text to columns tool to split all your characters to rows based on "," as a delimiter. Then for each string group, you can remove the duplicate occurrences of a character and then concatenate them back together

Hope that helps,

 

Cheers,
