This formula for find duplicate in multiple sheets but i have a problem when changed the name of sheets
=$A$2:$A$1000000
=SUM(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'Sheet" & ROW($1:$4) & "'!$A:$A"),$A2))>1

That rule i apply on the Home ---> Conditional Formatting ---> New Rule

The problem is when i change sheets name from Sheet1 to Jan, Sheet2 to Feb and so on, the formula not working. I try to changes "'Sheet" to "Jan" or "'Jan" but still not working

Please help me for your advice, thank you
 
If you may change them in the future then this maybe better:

=SUM(COUNTIF(INDIRECT(CHOOSE(ROW($A$1:$A$4),"Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr")&"!$A:$A"),$A2))>1

In the row part ROW($A$1:$A$4) the 4 must equal the number of sheets you have.

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
