Q1: To check similar rows, assuming that they are ordered, in cell H2
(assuming start at row 2) =A2&":"&B2&":"&C2&":"&D2&":"&E2&":"&F2&":"&G2
and in cell I2 =COUNTIF($H$2:$H$11,H2)
This will give you the number of rows that are the same where the number is
larger than 1.
Q2 & Q3: There are permut and combin functions in Excel but you need to work
out exactly what you are asked for in your questions.
