Default Compare adjacent fields in adjacent rows

I need to flag duplicate names in a spread sheet sorted by Surname,
Given Name (separate columns).

In other words...

IF (the surname and the given name in row(n) match the surname and given
name in the row above(n-1) or below(n+1), display "Dupe", else display "
" )

Thank you for your help.

Joan
