Default search for same text

If there a way to tell excel to search within the same workbook for
multi-entry of same text. Want I'm trying to do if check to make sure that
the spreedsheet doesn't have double entry of the same information. Can excel
do that and if so how do I make it happen?
Thanks to anyone that replies
