    Sorting duplicate values in a column

    I have a spreadsheet that I need to sort. I want to either sort or highlight all the values in a column that are duplicate. Is there a way to do this???

    Hi,

    Presuming your list is in the range A1:A100,

    Use this in conditional formatting > Formula is

    =COUNTIF($A$1:$A$100,A1)>1
    Rule 1: Never merge cells
    Rule 2: See rule 1

    Or, if you want only the duplicates highlighted, leaving the first of each entry alone, change Sweep's formula to =Countif($A$1:$A1,A2) and begin at A2.
