Easy problem

Hi all,

The macro below deletes all duplicate rows by checking Column A for duplicate entries. It works fine for ordinary numbers but it wont work for for times and dates. The entries in column A are in the format dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss. How to I modify the code to do this. I tried declaring the variables As date but it doesn't work. Any ideas please?

Sub DeleteDups()

Dim x As Long
Dim LastRow As Long

LastRow = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
For x = LastRow To 1 Step -1
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("A1:A" & x), Range("A" & x).Text) > 1 Then
Range("A" & x).EntireRow.Delete
End If
Next x

End Sub
