Default different color for duplicates!!! how?

The following loops through a colour list to highlight cells with duplicates.


Sub test()
HighlightDuplicates Range("A2:A201")
End Sub

Sub HighlightDuplicates(DuplicateRange As Range)
Dim rng As Range, rngF As Range, rngFull As Range, rngLast As Range
Dim lngColorIndex As Long, varColors As Variant

Set rngFull = DuplicateRange

varColors = Array(3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
lngColorIndex = LBound(varColors)

rngFull.Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone
Set rngLast = rngFull(rngFull.Rows.Count, rngFull.Columns.Count)

For Each rng In rngFull
If rng.Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone Then
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(rngFull, rng.Value) 1 Then
For Each rngF In rngFull
If rngF.Value = rng.Value Then rngF.Interior.ColorIndex = varColors(lngColorIndex)
Next
lngColorIndex = lngColorIndex + 1
If lngColorIndex UBound(varColors) Then lngColorIndex = LBound(varColors)
End If
End If
Next
End Sub

i have table full of numbers,
what i need is to find duplicates and mark them with different colors.
so like one numbers with red color, others with green, other yellow and so on.
so each set of duplicates will have own color.
i think it will be easier to see if we have this number so i will then
delete it from all rows.
i just used this formula, but donno how to make scenario above
=COUNTIF(L:L;L27)1


thank you
