Marty,
I would use a helper column, with a formula like =COUNTIF(A:A,A2) copied down, then filter on that column, for values 1.

how do i show non-unique records (duplicates) using advanced f
Thanks for the reply! I was hoping to avoid the helper column. Running the
advanced filter and selecting unique is exactly the way i want to go, only opposite. if there is any way of doing this withou a helper column i would prefer it, but i may be stretching. It just seems if the filter can be ran from VBA and select unique that the opposite should be true. Thanks Again!

Marty,
When you are using the unique items only option, you are not actually filtering to show items that only appear once - it also shows items that appear multiple times, but only lists them once. So there really is no 'reverse' of that. HTH, Bernie MS Excel MVP "Marty" wrote in message ... Thanks for the reply! I was hoping to avoid the helper column.
