Finny,

=IF(COUNTIF(A:A,A1)=COUNTA(A:A),"ALL are the same","NOT all are the same")

can be used to tell if all the entries in column A are all the same.

All the formulas I can find pertain to only checking one cell agains
another:
EXACT() - "Compares two text strings and returns TRUE if they are
exactly the same..."

Is there no formula to compare several strings? Seems silly.

2007 only has 5 new formulas? yikes.
