Delete rows

Hi everyone, hope all is well. 

I'm trying to delete some rows that would cause a 'duplicat' issue for my report. Typically, I would filter by color and highlight and delete all rows that contain the word "Results" in excel. 

How can I accomplish this same result? ie. I would get rid of rows containing the word "Result"

Hi @ana_scelza ,

 

use a filter tool and configure as follows:

The "T" output, or True output will contain the records you want.

 

Hope this helps,

You can either use a Filter tool or a Unique tool.

 

With a filter, you can specify to filter out rows that contain the word "result." Any values that do not contain this word would come out of the T output. Results containing "result" would come out of the F output.

 

Alternatively, if you're just looking to de-duplicate records, you can use a Unique tool. Simply check off any value that would be a unique ID for a line to keep.

 

See attached for examples of both.

It totally worked, thank you so much!

Now I need to apply it to every column that contains "Result"
