Isn't the easy way to do this:-
1. select data
2. Data - Filter - Standard Filter - More - no duplication

Excellent point, but in the value column I had to put "Not Empty"

Using a formula comparing just one column as criteria whether to see a row as duplicate or not in IMHO a bit questionable, but it might have its uses.
