Remove Email Duplicates

Hi,

 

I would like to seek your ideas on how I am going to remove email duplicates. for example in a report is teddy123@yahoo.com<teddy123@yahoo.com> will give an output of teddy123@yahoo.com. It will remove the <teddy123@tyahoo.com>. In one field it may consist of multiple emails with duplicates and I would like all duplicates to be remove. Please see sample attachment for your reference.

 

Please advise for the formula to use.

 

Thanks and hoping for your response.

HI @KamenRider  will the duplicates be across multiple fields or within a specific field?

Hi @KamenRider 

 

Something like this would work:

Someone might be able to 1 tool this in a formula but I like to break it down if it'll take me less time to do than in a formula!

Hi @Kakuffo 

 

Duplicates can be found in different or multiple fields. Kindly see my sample attached.

Hi @JamesCharnley 

 

I think you are getting the solution I am looking for however I do have an error when I run it to my file. Maybe because my file has to many columns compare to the sample I gave you. Suggest to kindly check sample attached which corresponds to the file I am using.

 

Looking forward for an update in the workflow.

 

Thanks,

Kamen
