    Re: Matching a range of values

    if there are not alot of columns, I would concatenate the columns, separating each with a special symbol, in order to avoid crossovers

    e.g.

    =A1&"^^"&B1&"^^"&C1&"^^"&D1

    copied down

    then you can use Countif to find if there are dupes:

    =COUNTIF($E$1:$E1,$E1)>1

    copied down (where E1 contains first concatenation formula)

    TRUE means there are duplicates.
