One way is a Pivot Table:
1. make sure there is a header cell on top of the column, i.e. ITEMS 2. create the Table with ITEMS in the row area and Count of ITEMS in the data area This will result in a table in which each item appears only once with the count next to it. Click on the cell directly above the pivot table and switch on autofilter. Using the Total pull-down, select: custom greater than 1 -- Gary's Student "mspinella" wrote: I have one column of text values.
