Avoid duplicates in Excel






In order to avoid duplication when encoding in a column from an excel sheet:
  • take the conditional format on the first cell under the headings (eg A2)
  • choose the following formula: 


=NB.SI($A$2:$A$21;A2)>1
  • settle the background color you want in case of duplicates.


The duplicates will now be detected more quickly.
