    Remove Duplicates (but collect and keep their unique ID)

    Can anyone please explain how the following was done. I'm unsure whether a simple formula or excels standard functions were used.

    Before: Random Data Clense _Master sheet2.xlsx (20.0 KB) (attached)

    The spreadsheet needed to be cleaned of duplicates but the extra column had to contain the unique IDs of duplicates removed.

    After: Random Data Clense _Master sheet2_halfdone.xlsx (16.5 KB) (attached)

    Thanks in advance!

    I desperately need to know this by tomorrow for an interview! I'd be grateful for any help on the matter.
