'm trying to import a text file but the primary key column contains duplicatres (tunrs out to be the nature of the legacy data). How can I kick out all duplicates except, say, for a single primary key value
TIA,

Duplicate primary keys in input file

SORT component has the ability to eradicate dupes. Have you looked into using that

No, but I will.
BTW does SORT allow me to send those dups to an "erorr" file so I can see I can further investigate those "bad" records

No, you can't do that. But you could easily use an AGGREGATE followed by a conditional split to get all those where the key appears more than once.
