I have to work with data CSV file. They look like this
sample It represents products with options/cars etc. at the web-store.
It has a lot of columns with duplicated values and in my work in often need to copy some part of this data to another sheet, deduplicate it, edit and then paste it back by matching it for one of the columns that were untouched. More this purpose I'm using Ablebits Excel suit.
Is it possible by any excel function to automate this process or maybe there is some other software that could handle this? Something not so complicated as relational databases like Access, but something close to spreadsheet editor with relationships
I already tried Power Query in Excel and Power Bi, but they seem to be more analytics tools and not the data edit
2nd edition: Data has a layer structure with duplicates.
Title1|Part number 1|Car1
Title1|Part number 1|Car2
Title2|Part number 2|Option1
Title2|Part number 3|Option2
I want to have opportunity to:
- Edit values that duplicate without using "Replace All" or at least have more flexible "Find&Replace".
- Extract columns with deduplicating them and saving a reference to the place they were taken. So if you edit some data there it was changed in the 1st place. For example, I have titles(a lot of titles) but need to edit it. Instead of copying it with some id to reference it I want to open it like they appears in filters, edit it, confirm and get it edited in all column
