if same value in a range, return yes

[prochasska]

Hi,

I have a big table where I need a formula to do the following:

• if six cells in a column contain the same value, the formula should return "yes"

Example:

column N

Los Angeles

Los Angeles

Los Angeles

Los Angeles

Los Angeles

Los Angeles

<colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody>
</tbody>

• if six cells in a column contain different values, the formula should return "no"

Example:

column N

Los Angeles

Los Angeles

Los Angeles

Barcelona

Barcelona

Rome

<colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody>
</tbody>

I have tried to use if and countif, but the formula returns "yes" only for the first cell. I need the formula to return yes for all six cells.

I hope someone can help with this formula.
