    Count duplicates

    Good morning,

    Next scenario.

    I have sheet "X" with 10 columns with data, each column contains +1000 numbers.
    I want to check if there are duplicates in every column (separated of each other), and the amount of duplicates should be on sheet Y

    So on Sheet Y I need to see:
    Column A: 10 (amount of duplicates)
    Column B: 45(...)
    ....

    Thx in advance!!

    Re: Count duplicates

    What is a duplicate? If one value appears 3 times, how many duplicates is it?

    Re: Count duplicates

    Good morning,

    Actually the same when you use the function remove duplicates in excel. You get a message how much duplicates were removed. It is that number I need to be pasted in a cell on another sheet (same workbook)

    Thanks

    Re: Count duplicates

    The below counts unique values
    =SUMPRODUCT((range<>"")/COUNTIF(range,range&""))

    so
    =SUMPRODUCT((a1:a1000<>"")/COUNTIF(a1:a1000,a1:a1000&""))


    counta(a1:a1000) would give total values

    so counta(a1:a1000)-SUMPRODUCT((a1:a1000<>"")/COUNTIF(a1:a1000,a1:a1000&""))
