Duplicate Entries

I have a wages programme that I am working on and need to see if I have entered names and shift patterns more than once, Is there a way I can have an automatic check in excel that would show me duplicates.

RE: Duplicate Entries

Dear Alf

Thank you for attending Access Introduction course!! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.


I believe that I showed you the Auto Filter or Advanced Filter method for finding duplicate values.

Please find the below ink that I provided the print out for that shows you how you can use a formula and Conditional Formatting to highlight the duplicate values.

Concatenating Results of Formulas

To concatenate the results of formulas simply add the "&" after the formula or function closing bracket.

function1(....)&function2(.....)
