    looking up names in a list

    I have a worksheet which contains a list of names. Some names appear once,
    some twice, some three times and so on. I would like a formula that would
    return a list of all the names that appear say twice.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    Re: looking up names in a list

    Use a help column and a formula like

    =COUNTIF($A$2:$A$100,A1)=2

    copy down, apply data>filter>autofilter and filter on help column and TRUE

    another approach, select list, do data>filter>advanced filer, copy to
    another location and unique records only
    that will create a list with names only appearing once, in an adjacent cell
    put

    =COUNTIF($A$2:$A$100,H2)

    where H2 is the first unique named of the filtered list, copy down and
    you'll get the occurrences of the names next to each name
