Default locate duplicates by sing conditional formatting--doesn't work for

Anybody have an idea why I get an error message "Cannot use conditional
formatting for arrays...constants..." when I try to set up the conditional
formatting in the first cell in the row I'll be searching for duplicate
entries? I am following step by step the MS Assistance article's instructions
for finding duplicates using the COUNTIF function. Perhaps there's a
work-around or another way to find duplicate data within cells in a row (not
duplicate records , though). Thanks.
