For a given column, this helper-column formula will indicate if the text in an entire cell has not appeared previously with "First". If cell text has appeared before, display the row where it first appeared:
Is there a formula that would show each row where duplicate text appears in the helper column?
The real-life data runs about 1500 rows with no more than 20 duplicates.
Organization involved wants to avoid the various VBA solutions.
Rich (BB code):
=IF(ROW(F3)<>MATCH(F3,F:F,0),MATCH(F3,F:F,0),"First")
Example:
Row Data Helper
1 A First
2 B First
3 C First
4 A 1
5 C 3
