    Unhappy duplicate rows

    Hi,

    I know this is probably an easy one but I can't seem to make it work. I have 6 columns of 3 digit zip codes, some repeat in the same row.


    201 401 301 212 311 212

    311 412 311 212 212 311

    What is the easiest way to find duplicate rows? What I need is to compare row 1 to all rows for duplicates( of the exact row ie. a1-f1) then compare row 2 ,row 3 etc.
    I have tried =countifs but I can not make the formula work.....

    Can someone please help?




    Thank you

    Hi

    One way to do this, is using Conditional Formatting, to fill with color the cells in your range that containing the same values.

    Formula for this, is: =COUNTIF($A1:$F1;A1)>1 And pull down as much as you need.

    Hope to helps you.

    Rows with duplicated data (A:F) with others will be marked with "duplicated".
