Try this

[CatDaddy]

[VBA]Sub check_Doubles()
Dim cell As Range
Dim col As String
Dim i, r, cr, lr, r3 As Integer
For i = 1 To 2
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(i).Activate

If i = 1 Then
r = 6
col = "C"
Else
r = 12
col = "H"
End If

lr = Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
r3 = 9

ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(i).Sort.SortFields.Clear
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(i).Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range("D" & r & "" & lr) _
, SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(i).Sort
.SetRange Range("A" & r - 1 & ":I" & lr)
.Header = xlYes
.MatchCase = False
.Orientation = xlTopToBottom
.SortMethod = xlPinYin
.Apply
End With

For Each cell In Range("D" & r & "" & lr)
If cell.Value = cell.Offset(1, 0).Value Then cell.Offset(0, -3).Resize(2, 1).Value = "DOUBLE"
Next cell

For Each cell In Range("A" & r & ":A" & lr)
If cell.Value = "DOUBLE" Then
cr = cell.Row
Range("D" & cr & ",F" & cr & ",H" & cr).Copy Destination:=Sheets(3).Range(col & r3)
r3 = r3 + 1
End If
Next cell

Next i

End Sub[/VBA]

Hello CatdaddyNow i got the problem, actually i am using excel 2003 and sort fields function is for excel 2007. Is it possible to replace this sortfields function in such a way that it works in excel 2003 too.

[Bob Phillips]

Just use

[VBA] With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(i)

.Range("A" & r - 1 & ":I" & lr).Sort Key1:=.Range("D" & r - 1), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes
End With[/VBA]

What was wrong with my formula solution?
