Can excel Flag repeat entries?
This is my first post. I have a bunch of cases that are numbered that I've dumped into a spreadsheet. I need to find out how many duplicates there are, for instance a case might be labeled REF242 and there will be 2 of those ect. I need to know which one's are duplicates so I can subtract the dollar amount associated with the repeats. Does anyone know how to do this in excel?

Take a look at Chip's site on duplicates.
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/duplicat.htm Pretty much covers most situations I believe. Still having trouble...? Post back. HTH Regards, Howard "Capytanred" wrote in message ...

you can identify the duplicates by a formula. Suppose your list is in
A1:A100. In B1 enter =IF(COUNTIF(A$1:A$100,A1)1,"Dup","") and fill down to B100. "Capytanred" wrote in message ... This is my first post.
