Hi All...
Unique values in column D should have unique values in Column A.
If not, need those data in sheet 2

For example in the attached file for the value 753753 in column D the Column A value shoull be the same for all..but its different and its highlighted
Have attached sample data..

Any assistance will be highly helpful

Use conditional formatting with a formula of

=SUMPRODUCT(--($A$1:$A2=$A2),--($B$1:$B2=$B2),--($C$1:$C2=$C2),--($D$1:$D2=$D2))<>COUNTIF($D$1:$D2,$D2)

Hi,

I have very large number of data (around 10,000 rows).
Since we are dealing with huge datas macro will be very useful...

Also for each unique value in column D there should be single value onlye.. if there is more than a single value for a particular value then that should be highlighted and pull that data into sheet 2.

Immediate help on this will be highly helpful...
Thanks in advance...

Hi,

Thanks a lot and it worked for me..
I copied the formatting and used ctrl + shift + downarrow to apply the formula.. It takes more time and so do suggest me to apply the formatting and formula only to the used rows.

You can select all of the data at one time and apply the format.

Hi Xld,
Am all set with my requirement
I did the formatting using the below coding…



dim LastRow as long

with activesheet

lastrow = .cells(.rows.count,"A").end(xlup).row
.range("E2:E" & lastrow).formula = "=SUMPRODUCT(--($A$1:$A2=$A2),--($B$1:$B2=$B2),--($C$1:$C2=$C2),--($D$1:$D2=$D2))<>COUNTIF($D$1:$D2,$D2)"

end with



Thanks for all your assistance..

Sindhuja,

Glad it's sorted. I was actually thinking of using that as a conditional formatting formula, and highlighting those rows.
