I want my macro to do the following:

* Compare values within a selected range

* Wherever there is a duplicate value, change the font
color of the entire row to red

Eg If the value "apple" appeared in both A1 and A10, then
row 1 and 10 would have the red font color applied to them

Any suggestions??

Hi Lynn,
See Conditional Formatting
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/condfmt.htm

Duplicated Anywhere in Column: Need not be sorted (includes first of duplicates)
Formula is: =COUNTIF($A:$A,$A1)1
