Finding Missing and duplicated Numbers
I have a table
name a 15 name b 16 name c 18 There will be 80 names and 54 numbers (1 to 54). I need a formular that would search the list of numbers and report back any duplicate numbers and missing numbers. Is that possible? |

Finding Missing and duplicated Numbers
Here is a simple solution. I put my names in A6:A85 and numbers in B6:B85
If your numbers are somewhere else change the references to $B$6:$B$85 in my formulas but do not change reference to A1. In C6 enter this formula =IF(COUNTIF($B$6:$B$85,B6)-1,"Duplicate","") Copy it down the column by double clicking the fill handle Numbers that are duplicated will be so indicated In D6 enter this formulas =IF(ISNA(MATCH(ROW(A1),$B$6:$B$85,0)),ROW(A1),"") Copy down the column Numbers that are missing in column B will be displayed in column D best wishes -- Bernard Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme "Ujpest" wrote in message ...
