I know how to conditionally format for duplicates. Is there a way I can format only those text values that show up, say, 4x or more, instead of 2?
 

Excel Facts

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
How about
=COUNTIF($A$2:$A$200,A2)>3

sorry, I'm having trouble with this. Why do I need two arguments? I only need to look at entries B1:B50.

In that case use
Select B1:B50 then in conditional formatting > New rule > Use a formula
=COUNTIF($B$1:$B$50,B1)>3
