Hi JP,

I kept checking for replies yesterday but nothing showed up? Thank you very
much for your reply and assistance.

Not looking for duplicates as such but rather a summed count of a particular
number that appears twice and only twice in a row but can have multiple x2
appearances within my dynamic range.

Just a brief recap:
I would like to find the summed count of a specific (but variable) numeric
value that appears only twice (x2) in any row; the numeric value can appear
in any column. Would very much appreciate a formula using the dynamic named
range "Data" as opposed to the A1 notation style of cell referencing.

The criterion in this instance is "0" zero.

Sample Data Layout (using 5 columns, 8 rows):
0 89 0 100 0
216 100 205 70 220
0 216 218 0 206
343 99 250 323 256
234 0 211 99 214
219 134 235 500 243
205 0 0 150 214
99 0 250 0 0

Expected Results:
Looking for criterion "0": a summed count of 2 should be returned.
Rows 3 and 7 meet the criteria: explicit x2 appearance of zero (0) in any row.


Further help appreciated, if possible.

Cheers,
Sam

If your range was named "myData", this formula would count the number
of times the number 1 appears in the range.

=IF(COUNTIF(myData,1)1,"Dupes!","No Dupes")

And this formula (entered as an array w/ Ctrl-Shift-Enter), will let
you know if there are any dupes at all:

=IF(COUNTA(myData)=SUM(1/COUNTIF(myData,myData)),"All Unique","Some
dupes")

Does this help?
Not looking for duplicates as such, please see above.
