Duplicate rows in data table

Help
#4

Great! Thanks @arivu96 @MAHESH1

(From p in dt.Select() where( From q in dt.Select() where string.Join(",",q.ItemArray).Equals(string.Join(",",p.ItemArray)) Select q).ToArray.Count>1 Select p).ToArray.CopyToDataTable()

This returns a data table with all the duplicate rows. Any ideas how to just add a flag on a new extra column to show that the row is a duplicate? I would like to do a left join to my initial data table and just add a “D”.

@cristian_ivanoff
Add DataColumn byusing Add DataColumn activity to dt name it Flag
Extract the Duplicate rows and store in a datatable dt1

Get the distinct values by using
dt2=dt1.DefaultView.ToTable(True)

Run for each row for datatable dt

in if condition
(From p in dt2.Select()
where string.Join(",",p.ItemArray).Equals(string.join(",",row.ItemArray)
Select p).ToList.Count>0

then Assign row(“Flag”)=“flag”

Mahesh

Hi @cristian_ivanoff,
You can use “Remove duplicate rows” Activity also to remove the duplicates. Below I have attached a sample .

Hi Guys,
If the duplicate names exist in column, how to select the first row of the duplicate column.

@JeevithaBA

Do the Group by for the Datatable based on column which is having duplicate values and take the first value of that group.

Let us take the datatable as dta as your original datatable

dtb =  (From p In dta.Select
          group p by ID=p("Column_ Name").ToString To Group
          Select Group(0)).ToArray.CopyToDataTable

So now dtb will contain the First Rows of Duplicate values.
Replace Column_Name with the Column name having Duplicate Values.

Mahesh

@JeevithaBA try below code. It might be useful.

DataTableName.AsEnumerable().GroupBy(Function(a) a.Field(Of String)(“column_name”)).Select(Function(b) b.First).CopyToDataTable()

@JeevithaBA

You first Extract the Table and store it in a datatable.
Then Filter And take only the First occurence of the rows, and add one more column which contains the row index of First Occurence.

Then run Foreachrow for the Filtered Datatable, and make a dynmaic selector based on the row Index stored in a column inside ForeachRow.
