    How can I find and mark double entries in a customer database?

    Hi,
    I have a braod customer database and want to find out which customers appear
    more than once. I know how to get rid of double entries by using the function
    advanced filter, but I need to know what customers were concerned.
    Can anyone please advise??

    Cheers

    Use the advanced filter to create a unique list by selecting copy to another
    location when you filter unique records only, that way you'll get a list
    with no duplicates, then (assuimg you copy the list to H2:H500) in an
    adjacent cell (maybe I2) use a formula like

    =COUNTIF($A$2:$A$10000,H2)>1

    (assuming original list is A2:A10000)

    copy down

    and all entries with TRUE next to them occurs more than once

    or remove >1 and get the number they occur right away
