I am trying to find a way to easily know if any price changes from a very large dataset. Over 100k rows. Currently I am filtering by frequency, then using pivot tables and its cumbersome. I am looking if I can just have a column called "changes" so I only have to focus on any duplicates that have changes. There could be a lot of duplicates with the same price but I don't really care about those. The unique Identifier column A is what sets them apart. I did a snipbit below using XLBB to give a frame of reference what I am dealing with. In the future I will probably looking for a way to give me the changes but for right now babysteps and just looking for changes "Yes or No". Thank you as always for helping look at this.

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
how about
=COUNTIFS($A$3:$A$26,A3,$E$3:$E$26,"<>"&E3)

and use in an IF
=IF(COUNTIFS($A$3:$A$26,A3,$E$3:$E$26,"<>"&E3)>0, "yes", "no")

What version of excel will this be used with - you have lots in your profile - probably better to just have the version you want to use or be used with - as lots of different functions now

You could probably use filter to pull out the list if you needed to - as you have 2021 version which has FILTER() function, also UNIQUE() to pull out just the unique entries into a list filtered

just in case you wanted to use FILTER() , UNIQUE() and SORT()

=SORT(UNIQUE(FILTER(A3:H26,COUNTIFS($A$3:$A$26,$A$3:$A$26,$E$3:$E$26,"<>"&$E$3:$E$26)>0),1))

see results in column Q

So I use Office 365 at work but then at home I use different ones. But point taken 90% is needed for my work. Ill amend. I like the sort, unique, filter that is clever because then I can toss it on a new tab called "changes." The only dilemma with that is what happens if there is no changes? Like can I VBA code it with a message to skip if no changes? I noticed if no changes it does #CALC! also setting it with VBA is there a special way to do it I have it like this but not quite working

VBA Code:
.Range("A7").Formula = "=SORT(UNIQUE(FILTER(A7:H30,COUNTIFS($A$7:$A" & lrS & ",$A$7:$A" & lrS & ",$E$7:$E" & lrS & "," <> "&$E$7:$E" & lrS & ")>0),1))"

there is an option on filter() for if empty
so you can use
=SORT(UNIQUE(FILTER(A3:H26,COUNTIFS($A$3:$A$26,$A$3:$A$26,$E$3:$E$26,"<>"&$E$3:$E$26)>0,"No Changes"),1))

or whatever message

Ok having slight problem getting it set with VBA when I do the below which i think should work it says "TRUE" regardless of changes or not. Do you see anything visibly wrong I am doing?

VBA Code:
With WsSummary
lrS = .Cells(Rows.Count, "E").End(xlUp).Row
End With

VBA Code:
With WsChanges
    .Cells.ClearContents
    .Range("A2").Formula = "=SORT(UNIQUE(FILTER(Summary!A7:H" & lrS & ",COUNTIFS(Summary!$A$7:$A$" & lrS & ",Summary!$A$7:$A$" & lrS & ",Summary!$E$7:$E$" & lrS & "," <> "&Summary!E$7:$E$" & lrS & ")>0,""No Changes""),1))"
End With

sorry i dont provide VBA solutions on the forums
i didn't realise you wanted a VBA solution

I don’t so much even need a VBA solution just need to apply the formula with VBA and when doing so it’s not calculating correctly - I guess I’ll wait until someone may have an idea on it

This assumes your headers are in row 1 and your data starts in row 2. Try on a copy.
VBA Code:
Sub PriceChanges()
    Dim id, price, output()
    Dim i As Long, j As Long, numRow As Long
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim checkedIDs As Object
    Set checkedIDs = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
    
    Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
    
    numRow = ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
    id = ws.Range("A2:A" & numRow).Value2
    price = ws.Range("E2:E" & numRow).Value2
    ReDim output(1 To numRow, 1 To 1)
    
    For i = 1 To numRow - 1
        If Not checkedIDs.exists(id(i, 1)) Then
            checkedIDs.Add id(i, 1), ""
            For j = i + 1 To numRow - 1
                If id(i, 1) = id(j, 1) And price(i, 1) <> price(j, 1) Then
                    checkedIDs(id(i, 1)) = "yes"
                    output(i, 1) = checkedIDs(id(i, 1))
                    Exit For
                Else
                    checkedIDs(id(i, 1)) = "no"
                    output(i, 1) = checkedIDs(id(i, 1))
                End If
            Next j
        Else
            output(i, 1) = checkedIDs(id(i, 1))
        End If
    Next i
    
    ws.Range("J2").Resize(UBound(output, 1), 1).Value = output
End Sub
