Duplicate column filter

Hello!

 

I have a column with duplicate values. I need to write a DAX code, that will produce 'true' if the value is repeated and 'false' if it is unique.

 

Example:

 

1   false

2   true

2   true

3   false

4   true

4   true

5   false

 

Help me, please.

I believe all you need to do is add another earlier statement related to the 2nd column.

Column =
If (
Calculate( Countrows( 'Table' ) ,
All( 'Table' ) [Column] = Earlier( [Column] ) ,
[Column2] = Earlier( [Column2] ) ) = 1 , "False" , "True" )

It's perfect, thank you very much!

Maybe you know, how to do it, if I have 2 conditions? that is, I need to select values that are duplicated in both the first and second columns at the same time.

 

Example:

 

1    a    false

2    b    true

2    b    true

3    a    false

4    c    false

4    b    false

5    d    true

5    d    true
