    Counting multiple instances - same value

    Hi,

    I have a spreadsheet with approx 20,000 6-digit number values in column A, and no other data on the spreadsheet.

    I am looking for an expression that will let me display any values that are repeated in the list.

    For example; the data -

    123456
    456789
    741852
    963369
    456789

    After running the expression, I would like to display in another column, or worksheet the value 456789 as it is in the list twice.

    Can anyone tell me what expression/function I could use? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

    assuming your data is in cells a1:a20000, one solution is to put in cell b1
    if(countif($a$1:$a$20000,a1)>1,a1,"") and then copy to row 20000

    The you can filter showing unique values in column B and the copy these wherever you need them
    not a professional, just trying to assist.....
