    Removing Unique values and leaving duplicate values

    Hi I want to highlight duplicate rows. I would define a duplicate as, if column A & column M repeat anywhere, I have tried filtering and conditional formatting but just cant get it to work


    So in the example attached you could highlight the rows where A & M match with other rows, I have highlighted the two columns to compare


    Many thanks

    Welcome to the forum

    Please attach a sample workbook (not a picture or pasted copy). Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.

    Select A2:A21 & M2:M21 & use this formula
    =COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$21,$A2,$M$2:$M$21,$M2)>1

    You have select the whole column for both A & M, just select the rows with the data.
