    Conditional formatting to highlight rows that repeat

    Is there a way to use conditional formatting to highlight a range of cells that repeat the same exact values throughout an entire work sheet?

    Example:
    12121 - Highlight
    23232
    12123
    34343
    12121 - Highlight
    13232
    56565
    12121 - Highlight

    This is just a quick example of what I wish to accomplish. The values must be exactly the same in each column and as an FYI some cells may be blank.

    Thanks!

    Re: Conditional formatting to highlight rows that repeat

    bayala87, Good afternoon.

    Suppose your data is at A1:A100.

    Use this formula at Rule 1 of Conditional Format:

    =COUNTIF($A$1:$A$100;A1)>1

    Is that what you're looking for?
    I hope it helps.
