Hi Rey,

That will tell you which cells are in lower case, but not which lower-case cells are duplicates of upper-case cells:

I need to remove the duplicate rows that have the ID letters lowercase and I need to keep the ID's with uppercase letters.
You still haven't said what range the data spans. As it now appears to span part or all of Column B, you could use a formula like:
=TRIM(IF(COUNTIF(B$1:B1,B1)> 1,"Duplicate","")&" "&IF(EXACT(B1,LOWER(B1)),"Lower Case",""))
if you put the above formula in, say, D1 and copy it down as far as needed, it will report both duplicates (regardless of case) and lower-case forms (regardless of duplication).
