Hi,

contain duplicate numbers then CF indicate red colors.


I am apply the following formula in A1=ISNUMBER(COUNTIF($A1:$A10,$A1))>1 but its not working.

Any help much appreciated.

Easy bullets in Excel
If you have a numeric keypad, press Alt+7 on numeric keypad to type a bullet in Excel.
Try this Conditional Formatting formula:
Code:
[COLOR=#333333]=AND(ISNUMBER($A1),COUNTIF($A$1:$A$10,$A1)>1)[/COLOR]
that will highlight all the duplicates.

If you only want the 2nd, 3rd, etc occurrence of a number highlighted (and not the first one), try:
Code:
[COLOR=#333333]=AND(ISNUMBER($A1),COUNTIF($A$1:$A1,$A1)>1)[/COLOR]
