Hi Jackied,
Not sure what you mean by select column by name? Do you mean by Header name or Column letter or Named range or something else?
And where are those names located for Excel to know which columns need to remove duplicates? Or do you want to be prompted for each column?
Best regards,
Trowa

Hi Jackied,
Having a second look at your title, the following code might be what you are after:
Every column with a header named "Dupes" will get it's dupes removed. Change the word Dupes on the 3rd code line if you have/want another header name to trigger the removal of duplicates.

Having a second look at your title, the following code might be what you are after:
Sub RunMe()
For Each cell In Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))
If cell.Value = "Dupes" Then
Range(Cells(2, cell.Column), Cells(Cells(Rows.Count, cell.Column).End(xlUp).Row, cell.Column)).RemoveDuplicates Columns:=1
End If
Next cell
End Sub
Every column with a header named "Dupes" will get it's dupes removed. Change the word Dupes on the 3rd code line if you have/want another header name to trigger the removal of duplicates.
