Dear Experts,
Suppose,
'Col A' has a lot of text data, how can i find it out the duplicate data.


thanks

Hi

Enter this formula in an unused column and copy down.

=COUNTIF(A:A;A1)

Unique text result is one, for duplicates both entries will have the value 2
(or 3 in case of 3 identical strings).

Hopes this helps.

Hi Alam

If you are looking to generate a unique list you can use Autofilter option..

1. Select the range in Col A including the header. You need to have header
for ColA
2. From menu DataFilterAdvanced FilterCopy to another location
3. In copy to I have selected G1 and check 'Unique records only'
4. Click OK will give you the unique list in Col G

If this post helps click Yes
