I like to use conditional formatting when it's convenient:
If you have invoice numbers starting in Cell A3, try conditional formatting
from A3 through as far down column A as necessary with this:
Formula is: =COUNTIF(A$3:A3,A3)1
Format: Pattern: Bright Red
Using that, the first entry of an invoice number is ignored, but all
subsequent duplicates are flagged.
Does that help?
