Thanks Huang
I have a dataset as below:

serial    description
----------------------
10001     yes
          no
          may be
10001     he
          she
          them
1002      yes
          no
          may be
1002      he
          she
          them

How can I get rid of additions duplicate values  for the same serial?
I need only one serial number ( can not do grouping it messes uo the order)
as below

serial    description
----------------------
10001     yes
          no
          may be
          he
          she
          them
1002      yes
          no
          may be
          he
          she
          them

Thanks a lot.
