Hi Fabio, That's a very interesting approach to the problem, and a very good formula. Regards - Dave.

I've created a name for the formula on column B and used it in the conditional format condition. 2009/6/5 Lion123 <asadnave...@gmail.com> I am trying to sort special numbers in a long list of telephone numbers (7 digits). For example: a. Highlight yellow those numbers which have 3 consecutive digits (eg 2281555). b. Highlightt blue those numbers which have two double numbers (eg 4431122). c. Highlight green those numbers which are in a certain sequence (eg 2281234). I tried to use Left, Right and Mid formulas but the game becomes very complicated and hard to troubleshoot. Any better solution? -- Fabio Lemos e-mail: flnle...@gmail.com _________________________________________________________________ POP access for Hotmail is here!
