Hello,

I am trying to highlight all duplicated combination of 2 cells. Both cells are always numbers and I would like to see if there is already the same combination without adding a new column.
An example is:
20​
50​
20​
30​
20​
50​
15​
4​

I would therefore need Excel to highlight 1st and 3rd row as the combination exists more than once. I do not care whether cell A or B will be highlighted.
Thanks for any help.

You can use conditional formatting for that.
