Hi

When you want to find all occurrences of entries, starting from second (i.e.
you mark out 2nd, 3rd, etc. occurrence of incoice number in table), then
select the range A1:Gx (x is at least the number of rows in your table),
from Format menu select conditional formatting, like in Cezar's response set
'Formula is', and into formula field enter
=(COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1)1)
After that set the cell format for case the formula returns TRUE, and click
on OK.
