    But Conditional Formatting for duplicates will work for a row as well as for a column.

    Highlight your range then:

    Home/Conditional Formatting/Highlight Cells Rules/Duplicate Values

    Re: find duplicates in rows

    In that case, after first highlighting your range, e.g. A1:J12, and, importantly, making sure that the active cell in the worksheet is A1 when you do so, go to:

    Home/Conditional Formatting/Use a formula to determine which cells to format

    and enter this in the Format values where this formula is true: box:

    =COUNTIF($A1:$J1,A1)>1

    Regards
