Is this what you mean?

Yes, the question is ambiguous. I'm guessing:

ACADAE
128ORLCLECLE
129MINORLBOS
130OKCBOSMIN
131OKCOKC
Sheet3
Cells with Conditional Formatting
CellConditionCell FormatStop If True
AC128:AE131Expression=COUNTIF($AC$128:$AE$131,AC128)=3textNO

which is based on the assumption that a value may appear either 0 or 1 times (no more!) in each column.

I like your guess better but could be foiled if a value can occur more than once in a column like this.

This covers that case but can it be done in a simpler way?

I have a feeling there will be lots more than three columns, so perhaps:

CellConditionCell FormatStop If True
AC128:AE131Expression=AND(MMULT(TRANSPOSE(ROW($AC$128:$AC$131)),--($AC$128:$AE$131=AC128)))textNO

Yes, if the value is repeated in each column (3 Times).
The values will only appear once in each column.
How can we eliminate blank cells?
Row 134 will be the end of the range. And each cell contains a formula.

I've expanded the formula you supplied. And its working well. thx.
AB:AC and AD:AE, 2 working formulas were supplied, so I used both.
