Duplicate entries in an excel list?

Probably down temporary, you can use something like this

=IF(COUNTIF($A$2:A2,A2)>1,"Duplicate","")

where your list starts in A2, copy down in an adjacent column and it will
tag from the second instance of a duplicate, if you want from the first
instance


=IF(COUNTIF($A$2:$A$2000,A2)>1,"Duplicate","")

Even though you got a nice answer from Peo, you may want to visit Chip's site.
(It is ok this morning.)

There's lots of neat ideas there.
