How can i check for repetition of cell contents in a row/column? Please let
me know if a formula needs to be used for this or is there an already inbuilt provision for checking this functionality? If there is a formula or steps to be followed, please narrate the same. |

If there is a formula or steps to be followed, please narrate the same. Assuming source data in A2 down, Put in B2: =IF(A2="","",IF(COUNTIF($A$1:A2,A2)1,"dup","")) Copy down. Duplicates in col A, if any, will be flagged as "dup". You could then use autofilter on col B to filter out the "dup"s for closer inspection -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- |
