Hi,

Could you help me with a case-sensitive formula that would prevent duplicate values based on two cells? Now I'm using this for column C:
=SUMPRODUCT((--EXACT($C$1:$C$100000,C1)))<2

I need the same kind of thing, only it should evaluate column B as well. So, for example,

Column B         Column C
CEO              John Doe
engineer           John Doe
programmer        John Doe

should be evaluated as unique values.

Thanks in advance.
