Default Filtering Data in ranges and changing duplicate cells to a color

I use 2003 and need to know how to change the color of a duplicate field so
that it will alert me there is a duplicate.

That worked, thanks, the only thing is that there are about 200 numbers that
it has to compare and now it is slow. I may just filter it instead. Thanks.
