Does anyone know how to set up a spreadsheet to prevent
someone from entering duplicate data? There is a little
complication in that duplicate data can be allowed if the
data in the previous cell is not also a duplicate. In
other words, if cell A1 contains xyz and cell A2 contains
abc, then it is ok for cells B1 and B2 to contain 123.
However, if cells A1 and A2 both contain xyz, then the
information in B1 and B2 must be different.
