Hi

maybe you can give some more details. Some possible solutions
1. Assuming your list is in Row A, you can use columns B as helper
columns. Insert the following formula in B1
=COUNTIF(A:A,A1)
and copy this formula for all rows
This will show you the numer each entry occurs. Now you can sort this
columns B (descending order) or filter

2. You can Use 'Data - Filter - Advanced Filter' to create a new list
without duplicates

There are more solutions. Search Google for existing posts in this
