Marty,

I would use a helper column, with a formula like

=COUNTIF(A:A,A2)

copied down, then filter on that column, for values 1.

i want to show the duplicates and hide the unique records. advanced filter
works great when selecting "unique records only", but i want the opposite
result. any ideas on how to accomplish this using the filter or VBA would be
great!

Thanks!
