Well, I've searched the web and have apparently developed a table style that is rarely used and am having a difficult time finding help with my issue.
A brief background: I'm tracking what has/has not been done to certain vehicles at our dealership (taken pictures, write a description, etc). I currently have a table setup where after the pictures are taken for a vehicle, we'll add the stock number to the column "Pics Taken". After writing the description, we'll add the stock number to the same row (to keep everything organized) and the column "Description", and so on for the different tasks.
To avoid any duplication, I was hoping to write a Conditional Formatting code that would highlight a row if a stock number already appeared in another row. For example, if I marked in cell B15 ('B' being the column for "Pics Taken") the stock number '12345' and then in C23 ('C' for "Description") the same stock number, I would like to be warned of this mistake so I can properly move the second stock number entry to C15 (proper column, same row for organization). The difficulty I'm having is accomplishing this without having row 15 become highlighted because of the duplication in columns B and C.
In otherwords, the statement I would like to make is: does value B15 appear elsewhere in columns A:E but NOT row 15?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!!!
