This is another add-in for finding and removing duplicates. Unlike the Duplicate Remover it searches for partial dupes that differ in one or a few characters. Fuzzy Duplicate Finder will help you polish off all typos and misspelled words in a worksheet or a selected range.
What makes Fuzzy Duplicate Finder a perfect tool for the job?
- You specify the number of different characters for a particular search, from 1 to 10, and the Fuzzy Duplicate Finder finds all duplicate entries with omitted, excess or mistyped symbols.
- You can handle all sorts of character strings like serial numbers and other items which cannot be handled at all by usual spell checkers.
- All found items are visually presented in the add-in's pane arranged by duplicate groups for convenient reviewing.
- You can remove duplicates or correct typos directly in search results.
- You can specify the minimum number of characters for search.
