Is it possible to count number of instances of duplicate and unique cells found from a varied range using a list of data from another sheet as a reference to on what to look for? My data will be varied with up to 20,000 rows and up to 10 columns Also the cells will contain both numbers and letters, I will have 2 sheets one with the duplicate data and another with Total Duplicates. Can someone help with this please? Thanks

Example:

From this (Duplicates sheet)

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Header 1

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
How about
=COUNTIF(Sheet1!$A$2:$E$5,A2)

Hi Fluff, thanks for the reply however this formula is for the example, my data is varied so I can't specify exact range

In that case how about
=COUNTIF(Sheet1!A:L,A2)
Change the L to the last column you are likely to get
