I know how to find duplicate cells by using conditional formatting
Is there a way to only search characters 3 to 6 in a string to find duplicates, not the whole text?
=COUNTIF(A:A,A5>1

Something like this:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(MID($A$1:$A$1000,3,4)=A5))
You can't use full column references in Sumproduct in Excel 2003.
