I have a spreadsheet with over 100K rows (and growing) with surnames in 1 column (A) and Christian names in another (B) which I populate from another source. I need to find a formula/s to find when the same surnames and/or Christian names are not sequenced correctly eg surnames such as JONES should contain an _1 or _2 after them etc. If there is also a Christian name against a surname the same applies eg JONES John_1 etc. Basically I need to find same surnames with or without the _ so I can correctly sequence them. I suspect I may need 2 formulas to handle the surname separately from the surname/Christian names. I have a reasonably good understanding of formulas and have tried using LENS and MATCH but this one has me stumped. Any ideas?
