deduping in Excel

[evolutionyz]

I am looking to buying software that I can use to Dedup and clean mailing
lists in Excel. Does anyone recommend any in particular? At the present
time I am using Semaphore ZP4 with .dbf files, but it is very cumbersome to
switch back and fourth from .dbf to .xls because information is
sometimeslost. Do you recommend software like WinPure ? I appriciate your
guidance!

Excel has a number of features and capabilities that you can employ to
do this sort of thing. I've never heard of Semaphore or Winpure,
possibly because they may be mailing list-type software. Do they have
some special intelligence built in? How often and on what scale do you
have to do this sort of thing? What kind of duplications do you
encounter?
