Greetings to all forum participants!
Sometimes when processing heavily “dirty” data to simplify their structuring, it becomes necessary to subtract (delete) information in one column from several columns.
An example is next.
From column 4, you need to delete all the information that matches columns 1, 2, 3. Please note that the information in column 4 is clogged and the data from columns 1, 2, 3 can occur in any order.
I apologize for disturbing, but I myself could not yet find a solution through the built-in EDT functions.
Please advise if possible.
Unfortunately, I don’t know how to make Javascript myself, I haven’t managed to learn yet. But when a respected Admin made me a ready-made Javascript solution, I figured it out and reworked (adapted) specifically for my tasks. Therefore, if you know how to solve a problem using Javascript, then I will be grateful and I will use your solution.
@Admin I am grateful for the proposed solution to my question.
The solution is interesting. I tried out both of the options offered here. My personal opinion.
Plus options @Admin , clarity, simplicity of the solution and the final result you get in the original format of the table.
Method @jimmyhartington it has the advantage of high processing speed, and the disadvantage is the need to create new columns, which then also need to be processed.
By the way, is it possible to create a new “Javascript result” column through Javascript, and immediately delete the unnecessary “RESULT” column in the same script? Then the number of columns will not increase.
