Question How to merge multiple records into one and update the cells

I have a huge excel spreadsheet with about 10,000 records.
It looks somewhat like this:



Last First JDE SAP Oracle WMS HR
Smith John Y Y
SMITH JOHN Y
Smith JOHN Y

Basically i want top merge all 3 records into one and update the cells also to look like
Last First JDE SAP Oracle WMS HR
Smith John Y Y Y Y

Please tell me how can I do this.

Also I tried using "=proper" statement to change names into sentence case (e.g. JOHN changed to John), but I get a #ref error.
Why?

I need a solution asap...plz.

Any input is greatly appreciated!

hi Mag,
I have been looking into this, but so far I have no luck with merging the records.
As for the sentence case, you can use the formula as per the example in the attached image.

Regarding the merging, it will require someone more experienced (otherwise it can take ages for me to make it )
The following link gives an idea:

I will try again in evening if I am able to help you further.

Kind regards,
Wries
