Multi-Row formulas for dynamic range

Hi all,

 

I have a dataset with occasionally repeating identifiers, and want to be able to flag these when they happen. However, they don't repeat at the same intervals. I tried using a multi-row tool, but I can't just select Row-1, Row-2, etc.

 

As far as I know there isn't a Row-X type formula.

 

E.g.

 

 

Record IDIdentifierRepeat?
11230
22340
33740
41231
52320
62341

 

Any idea on how to build in a loop into the formula that would test for all previous rows? Or is there any other formula that is better suited?

 

Thanks!

Hey @victorb

 

Multi-row is definitely the correct tool for the job...you just need to make sure that you are grouping on identifier:
