    Hi All,

    Please help to find a formula to compare column C, D, and E values and result in column "F" as Duplicate / Unique. (Screen shot attached for your reference)

    Thanks in advance!

    Pls upload a sample workbook. Not a picture. At least next time.

    For now, perhaps..in F4 and copy down.

    =IF(OR(C4="",D4="",E4=""),"",IF(SUMPRODUCT(($C$4:$C$100=C4)*($D$4:$D$100=D4)*($E$4:$E$100=E4))>1,"duplicate","unique"))
    Regards

    Fotis.
