I have a large spreadsheet(7000 entries) that I would like to mark any of the

to be the same. I have attempted to use the following but it does not seem
to work:
=IF(COUNTIF(A:C,A2)1,"Duplicate","")
I place this in column D then copy it down through the spreadsheet.
Thanks for your help.
Hopefully someone has a faster method, but this formula:
=SUM(--((A1&" "&B1&" "&C1)=($A$1:$A$7000&" "&$B$1:$B$7000&" "&$C$1:$C$7000)))
array-entered (That means hold down <ctrl<shift while hitting <enter) and
copied down to row 7000 will return a count of the number of times A, B, and C
are found in the table.
It runs fairly slowly, though.
