Detect Duplicates
I have a list of values in B11 down to B97. The values are either numbers or
text, but there are no empty cells in the list. Is there a formula that will give me 0 if all the values are unique and give me 1 if any of the values are duplicated? Thanks in advance for any help. -- jake |

yup...arrange the column is ascending/descending order..
then in column C, apply this formula =B11=B12..... Drag this to the entire column.. if two subsequent rows are the same, it returns -true, else if all are unique, it would return false "Jakobshavn Isbrae" wrote: I have a list of values in B11 down to B97.

Try this, array-entered (press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to confirm the formula):
=IF(MAX(COUNTIF(B11:B97,B11:B97))1,1,0) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "Jakobshavn Isbrae" wrote: I have a list of values in B11 down to B97.
