Question : Removing Duplicates in Excel

I'm an Excel Novice so I'm going to explain this the best I can. :)

I'm working with a spreadsheet.  My goal is to get the weekly percentage of a specific application usage by dividing the "application" by the "# of calls taken"

for example... I have 2 applications that the employees are to use:

"testApp1"  which is on "sheet1"
and
"testApp2" which is on "sheet2"

although there are 2 apps each rep can only take a certain # of calls per week.  Now when I do my spreadsheet I use an index match to bring the number of calls over to each sheet and then divide the "usage" by the "calls".   Again all calcs are done on 2 separate sheets.

Sheet 1 (testApp1)
name            use             calls               %
emp1            20               32                 62.5%
emp2            40               53                 75.4%
emp3            13               64                 20.3%

Sheet 2 (testApp2)
name            use             calls               %
emp1            10               32                 31.3%
emp3            13               64                 20.3%
emp4            42               80                 52.5%

The calcs and data are brought together on a "3rd" sheet and looks like below:
name            use             calls                  %      Origin Sheet (not shown on spreadsheet)        
emp1            20               32                 62.5%- Sheet 1 (testApp1)
emp1            10               32                 31.3%- Sheet 2 (testApp2)
emp2            40               53                 75.4%- Sheet 1 (testApp1)
emp3            13               64                 20.3%- Sheet 1 (testApp1)
emp3            13               64                 20.3%- Sheet 2 (testApp2)
emp4            42               80                 52.5%- Sheet 2 (testApp2)

For employees 1 and 3, I want the # of calls to appear once on this sheet... Is it possible to remove dup's for a particular employee (I can include the employee's ID as an unique Identifier if needed)

Thanks~

It sounds like you have it setup pretty well.  No easy answers here.  Looks like we'll have to do some real thinking.  LOL

The first thing that must be done is to isolate where this query is being launched from.  Here's a couple of other things to check.  Does the page that won't load execute the query you listed in your original post or is it coming from somewhere else?  If it's part of the page, does commenting it out cause the page to run?  If you try running just the query in MySQL Admin or other tool, how long does it take to execute?

Definitely check for events and scheduled jobs running in the database.  Also, events were a new (beta) feature in mySQL version 5.  It could be an issue with proper running of events if they are part of your application.
