I'm using the following code to stop duplicate records being entered
into column A. In principle the macro works great but I would like to
add some enhancements.

First, on entry I'd like a message to say which cell has a duplicate
record, if one exists.
Secondly, I'd like the cell pointer (active cell) to goto the
duplicate record if one exists.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Dim LastRow As Integer
If Target.Column = 1 Then
If Not IsEmpty(Target.Value) Then
LastRow = Cells(65536, Target.Column).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To LastRow
If i < Target.Row Then
If Cells(i, Target.Column).Value = Target.Value Then
MsgBox Target.Value & " already exists.", vbExclamation
Target.Value = Empty
Exit For
End If
End If
Next i
End If
End If
