finding dupes (with a twist)

[Lyle]

Wow! My mind is officially blown! Thanks so much for this. Not only can I use this, but I have so much I can learn from it.

Any tips on learning resources? I have a couple books I'm plowing through, and watching some online tutorials.

My next step with is particular project is incorporate an Exceptions list. After the research on the dupes is done, we will allow some dupes to stay in the system. So my idea is to keep an Exceptions list, then after the program finds the dupes it omits the Exceptions before writing the dupes_final file.
