That works for a single list, locating duplicates.

What I need though is to spot the duplicates for a single date. The same
name will normally occur frequently on different dates.

I am using microsoft excel 2000, (9.0.2720)

In a list of bookings, comprising names locations and dates, I need to
highlight any problem of duplication. So if I book the same person
into two
locations on a single date or two people for the same location on a
single
date I need to highlight that problem. Is there a method of doing this
in
excel please?
