How do I compare cells in a column
I am inputing a large column of names and numbers and would like to insure I
don't repeat any. I'm not sure how the Vlookup works I continually receive errors and the If command only works with 2 cells. Thank you in advance for any help!! |
One way ..
Suppose the list to be entered is in col F Select col F Click Data Validation Make the settings: Choose under "Allow:" : Custom Source: =COUNTIF($F$1:F1,F1)<=1 Click OK -- Rgds Max xl 97 --- GMT+8, 1° 22' N 103° 45' E xdemechanik <atyahoo<dotcom ---- "Jim K" <Jim wrote in message ...

Source: =COUNTIF($F$1:F1,F1)<=1
Minor typo: "Source: " should read: "Formula:" -- Rgds Max xl 97 --- GMT+8, 1° 22' N 103° 45' E xdemechanik <atyahoo<dotcom ---- |
