Find all duplicates except the first one, then get values from a different column












1















A     B                    

X1 16
X2 17
X2 18
X2 19
X3 21


I have two columns as above.



If there are duplicates in Column A (here the duplicate value is "X2"), then I need to insert in another sheet:




  1. value "18" - i.e. second value of duplicates

  2. value "19" - i.e. subsequent value(s)


How can I find duplicates in column A, and then for all duplicates except the first one from each group, get the values from a different column?



I have tried with many IF, FIND formulas, but nothing seems to work.



Any suggestions?

          Let's say your values are in cells A2:B6. You can accomplish this by performing the following steps:





          1. Paste the following formula into cell C2 (and also provide a column header, if desired). This formula will return TRUE for all duplicates that are not the first instance, and it will return FALSE otherwise: =COUNTIF($A$2:$A2, A2)>1



            screenshot1









          1. Formula-copy cell C2 down through cell C6



            screenshot2









          1. Select cells A1:C6, click the "Data" ribbon, then click the "Filter" icon



            screenshot3









          1. Click the filter dropdown that now exists in cell C1, and de-select the FALSE checkbox



            screenshot4









          1. Select the values in column B that are still visible, and copy/paste to the new sheet
