Anyone know of a pc tool which will remove duplicate lines from a list?

I currently use unix or sql but was wondering if theres an easier way to remove dupe rows from an excel list?
 
I always use textpad (textpad.com) - Tools > sort > remove duplicates > job done

Oh the pain! all those wasted hours i could of been doing something else!

next you'll be telling me textpad can do sed and awk!
 
There's a shed load of plugins for it, I haven't found anything it can't do yet.
 
If you use Unix, you could do it like this in a flash:

sort inputlist >s; uniq s >outputfile; rm -f s
 
I use unix at work but was at a loss at home. Keep meaning to install solaris on a vm at home.
