Scan for duplicate forms.
Sometimes, you want to count the amount of duplicate inputs a person input in a form, but excelhave functions to do that, but if we can have it in the form side, that will be better.
Ravindu94 Had a quick look at your set of macros. I suspect that many of them are straight recordings without any clean-up performed. I notice numerous unnecessary scroll commands, select something, do nothing, select something else, format something and then format the same selection again etc. It really needs cleaning-up. Can't really test any of it, as you link to files on your own system.
The button on your first sheet starts up a sub called "CommandButton1_Click()". I've inserted the code I suggested in my previous post. You'll need to copy the Statusbar piece before each of the following calls and increase the step number by one (I've done two for you). Note that the Statusbar gives visual feedback in the bottom left-hand side of the screen.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Application.Screenupdating = False GetFile1 Application.Statusbar = "Step 1 of 22 completed" Macro1 Application.Statusbar = "Step 2 of 22 completed" GetFile2 Macro2 Macro3 DeleteBlankRows Macro4 Macro5 Macro6 Macro7 Macro8 Macro10 Macro11 GetFile2 Macronext1 Macronext2 Macronext3 Macro1next Macro2next Macro3next Macro4next summery Application.Screenupdating = True End Sub
If you insist on using a UserForm, use Google to find detailed instructions. It's not something I'm familiar with. Sorry!

- kslaiBrass ContributorI mean sometimes people might send different response, but sometimes the same for the whole form,if we can directly check that, without using the spreadsheet, that will be great
- Hi kslai,
Currently open as a uservoice here
https://microsoftforms.uservoice.com/forums/386451-welcome-to-microsoft-forms-suggestion-box/suggestions/17390659-provide-a-way-to-identify-and-remove-duplicate-ent
Not many votes so far - and as I am not sure that it’s 100% exactly what you need, you can always open/add a new uservoice for duplicate check in a Microsoft Form at the same site.
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris
