Hi.
I did this macro, I would like to know if there are a way to write this with less lines

VBA Code:
sub highL_Dup()
Range("R2:R37").Select
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:= _
"=COUNTIF($B$26:$G$26,R2)"
Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).SetFirstPriority
With Selection.FormatConditions(1).Interior
.Color = 65535
End With
Selection.FormatConditions(1).StopIfTrue = False
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
Like this
VBA Code:
sub highL_Dup()
With Range("R2:R37")
    .FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=COUNTIF($B$26:$G$26,R2)"
    .FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).SetFirstPriority
    .FormatConditions(1).Interior.Color = 65535
    .FormatConditions(1).StopIfTrue = False
End With
End Sub
You could remove 2 more lines, but it would mean making the rest longer so would be completely pointless.

How about
VBA Code:
Sub highL_Dup()
   With Range("R2:R37")
      .FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=COUNTIF($B$26:$G$26,R2)"
      .FormatConditions(.FormatConditions.Count).SetFirstPriority
      .FormatConditions(1).Interior.Color = 65535
      .FormatConditions(1).StopIfTrue = False
   End With
End Sub

and just for fun

VBA Code:
Sub highL_Dup()
    Dim FormatCond As FormatCondition
    Dim rng As Range
    Set rng = Range("R2:R37")
    rng.FormatConditions.Delete
    Set FormatCond = rng.FormatConditions.Add(Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=COUNTIF($B$26:$G$26,R2)")
    FormatCond.Interior.Color = 65535: FormatCond.StopIfTrue = False: FormatCond.SetFirstPriority
End Sub

thanks to your ideas I did this and work. Team is always better.
VBA Code:
sub
Range("T2:T37").FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=COUNTIF($B$25:$G$25,T2)"
With Selection.FormatConditions(1).Interior
.Color = 65535
End With
end sub

A word of warning, if you already have a CF rules for T2:T37 when you run that code, it will not work properly.
