    If you don't mind adding a helper column, then (assuming your data starts in A3) put the following in B3 and copy down:

    Then have two conditional formats, one with red font using the following formula:

    andthe other in yellow font with the following formula:

    Anything without a duplicate will have the default font color.

    Hi chatz86

    Assuming your data is in column A, with a header. For this example I am using column Z as a helper. In Z2:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    For the conditioning formatting rule, select cells A2:A15
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.

    Format as required.
    Regards Kevin
