Depends on the amount of data, too.

If you've sorted and used data|subtotal to get subtotals, then you'll be
surprised how easy your life will become after an hour playing with pivottables.

There's lots of links:

Debra Dalgleish's pictures at Jon Peltier's site:

And Debra's own site:

John Walkenbach also has some at:

(look for Tony Gwynn's Hit Database)

Chip Pearson keeps Harald Staff's notes at:

a much faster solution. I've never used pivottables much.

Ahhhh. The OP wants just the customers that have bought both author--not either
author.

I think I'd create a pivottable (with authors in the column field if they fit)
and then filter by those columns to show 0 for both columns (dickens and
twain).

those are the lines along which I was thinking, but some additional work
would be needed to identify the customer id's w/both Dickens and Twain.
filtering w/this criteria will result in customer id's that purchased either
author.

Maybe just apply Data|filter|autofilter to the range.

filter to show Dickens or Twain

If you need more, you could try Ron de Bruin's easyfilter.
