For those who are not as computer literate. Here follows instructions:Click
on A to high light that column. Go to Data. Go to validation.In settings go
to Allow and put in Custom.In formula put the formula =COUNTIF(A:A,A1)=1.
Follow this procedure with column B or C ect and substitute A for B or C ect
in formula box.
