Hi Samkhu,

This works for excel 03.

Select a cell in your table, goto top menu > Data > Filter > Advanced Filter.
Check your tables range and select "Unique records only".
Select copy to different location and select your location.

Now you can remove your original list and replace it by your filtered list.

I believe later versions of Excel has the ability to remove duplicates with a single click on the right button.

Hope this helps,
Trowa
