Thank you. I did that and unfortunately, I still saw numerous duplications of names, etc.
Asked in a different way, is there a way to filter rows based upon a keyword in one of the columns of the row? For instance, if row 2, column b has "Zimmer" in it and row 300, column F has "Zimmer" can we bring those two rows up together and any others like it so I can easily see what should be removed and what needs to be consolidated together?

Unfortunately, this function would only consider duplicates in the same column(s). The only other way I can think that might work would be a conditional format - see example attached (enter the search word in cell F1).
