I have to keep track of load ticket numbers for our trucking company. I have
it set up so they are all in one column. Is there a way I can set it up to warn about duplicate entries? Version I use is MS Office 2002. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks. Linda |

Assume your range is A1:A100...
<Format<Conditional Formatting... From the drop down box choose "Formula Is" Enter this formula: =COUNTIF($A$1:$A$100,A1)1 Choose a format (e.g. background color, text color) to display for duplicates Select "OK" Copy the formatting of this cell down to the end of your range Note: Change the reference of A1:A100 to fit your data. -- Regards, Dave "Baylee" wrote: I have to keep track of load ticket numbers for our trucking company.
