kadam062 Well, you can name the helper column, put a filter on it and filter out all rows that are "Unique" to show only "Duplicate". See attached, is this what you had in mind?

Riny_van_Eekelen yes the way you have it set it is good. I just double checked the filter and some of the data that I want to be showing up as duplicates comes up as unique (For example 1000195 on row 105).
I need to keep the spaces before the text in column B but I need to filter out the values that do not reappear in column C.
