Unique combinations of records in a list
Both of the last 2 answers work perfectly.
How can find in a very long list, the row (previous) that has the identical
records than the one found by the formula

Lean,
In row 3 of your helper column, enter the formula
=IF(SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A2=A3)*($C$2:$C2=C3))0,IF(A 3<"","X",""),"")
and copy down.

I have a Excel list made of 6 columns.
Records are added to that list daily.
I want to be able to create a helper column that will show an "X" next to a
row that has 2 records, let's say on column A and C ONLY, identical to those
in previous rows.
Example:
A B C D E
John 06/18/08 $ 590.00 256 A
Jack 06/19/08 $ 700.00 300 C
Mark 06/18/08 $ 590.00 256 A
Miles 06/19/08 $1,1190.00 300 C
Jack 06/18/08 $ 700.00 256 A...............X
(Identical records on Col A AND C than row 2
Lee 06/19/08 $1,1190.00 300 C
Any help or pointer will be gratefully appreciated
