I need to identify duplicate rows in an Excel sheet and highlight them using a defined color. How to proceed?
Solution
Highlight the cells/rows.
Select conditional formatting from the ribbon toolbar
Highlight rules/duplicate values
Set the color you wish.
Ok and apply.
This will highlight all that have duplicate values but the problem is that it will give the same color to all duplicate rows. But this will at least point out the duplicate rows for you.
