Works perfect! One more question. If I try to sort on column "b" to
bring
all the duplicates to the top, that will obviously mess up the
formula,
so,
can I use another formula to list all the duplicates in say column
"c"?

If column A contains your data, and is sorted so that duplicates are
displayed together, then in B2 put this formula and copy
down...........

=IF(A2=A1,"Duplicate","")

i'm needing to tag duplicate entries in a single column. the
entries

downloaded from access. i'm using the following formula, but keep
returning
#NAME?. please advise.

=IF(COUNTIF(Range1,A1)1,"Duplicate","")
