Find/remove duplicate multiple lines and keep the first occasions

@Terry-R I finally found time to test the macro. I was so happy with the method you described, I did not had the need of testing the macro…
But, bad news. It doesn’t do the same. It removes too much. I could sent you the total files. I just don’t want to post them here.
I think I do understand the method without the macro. And at the moment I feel confident in using it and maybe even altering it for another sort-like problem…but I will be back about that.
Thanks a lot ,

Sorry to hear the macro failed to faithfully follow the steps I had outlined. At least with the steps you may be able to generate your own macro. I will suggest if doing so to select the very first position in the file between each major step using Ctrl-Home (I think thats the hotkey).
Lately I’ve been seing what appears to be an anomaly where after a process has finished a word is highlighted. As this becomes a “selection” any subsequent process will likely ONLY work on that selection rather than the whole document.
