I am having list of records through columns A & B of which a number of rows of same value repeating multiple times. How can I flagging them in Col C, like "O" for original, "D" for duplicate, "T" fir triplicate, "Q" for quadruplicate and "M" for more than 4 times.?

Col A Col B Col C
NAME VALUE OCCURANCE
ABC 10 O
BCD 20 O
BCA 10 O
CAD 15 O
ABC 10 D
CBA 25 O
ABC 10 T
BCD 20 D
EFG 30 O
ABC 10 Q

in C2 try:
=VLOOKUP(SUMPRODUCT(--($A$2:$A2=A2),--($B$2:$B2=B2)),{1,"O";2,"D";3,"T";4,"Q";5,"M"},2,1 )
and copy down.

Dear Claus,

Thanks for the quick reply.!! I am getting absolutely right. However, I have given only 2 columns as an example. In fact I am having more than 20 columns for each row. In that case is there any other simpler format for achieving the result.?

Please let me know.!!

Regards.!

qith 20 columns the formula wil be very long.
Make a helper column in U and concatenate the 20 columns:
=A2&B2&C2&D2&E2........
Then in V2:
=VLOOKUP(COUNTIF(U$2:U2,U2),{1,"O";2,"D";3,"T";4," Q";5,"M"},2,1)

Another way should be VBA

Using the function after concatenating would be a cumbersome process, I suppose..!

So, if possible, please provide me some VB code for getting the result.!

Thanks and regards.!

try:

Sub Test()
Dim LRow As Long, i As Long
Dim varData As Variant, varOut() As Variant
Dim myRng As Range

With ActiveSheet
LRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To LRow - 1
Set myRng = .Range("A2:T" & LRow)
varData = Application.Index(myRng, i, 0)
ReDim Preserve varOut(LRow - 1, 0)
varOut(i - 1, 0) = Join(Application.Index(varData, 1, 0), ",")
Next
.Range("U2").Resize(UBound(varOut)) = varOut
.Range("V2").Resize(UBound(varOut)).Formula = _

"=VLOOKUP(COUNTIF(U$2:U2,U2),{1,""O"";2,""D"";3,"" T"";4,""Q"";5,""M""},2,1)"
End With

End Sub
