I'm creating a work schedule and currently the excel allows me to select from a drop down using data values. What I'm looking for is a way (formula) that recognizes a duplicate in the cells I have listed below. Yellow is Names drop down (don't care about duplicates there. White has drop down for job position (this where I cannot have duplicates). Please help!
