To identify the number of dupes, say in A1:A1000 then use this formula in
another column (Say E2 and copy down)

=COUNTIF($A$1:$A$1000,A1)

Other ways of handling dupes can be found here

Is there any way to find the number of unique values among a set of
values in a column in an excel sheet. I would also like to know the
number of times each value appears in the column.

Thanks
