I have a table in the following manner (let's say they are positioned from columns A to D)

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]ID[/TD]
[TD]Name[/TD]
[TD]Ref #[/TD]
[TD]Location[/TD]

[TD]407[/TD]
[TD]INVTF[/TD]
[TD]100900[/TD]

</tbody>[/TABLE]

100900 occurs twice here under two different IDs (i.e., 407 and 800). Is there a formula or a macro that I can use that will write that the Ref # exists in different ID sequences or a formula that will check for dups after the second iteration?
