Hi I have a file of 5000 lines where it has forename, surname, address but I need to determine if they took a policy out on a certain date, cancelled it and purchased a different one. is there a formula to help do this? below is a test file of data that i need to do this to. Basically within the list it shows different years of account and I need to determine whether someone has bought 2 policies within the same year and cancelled any of them. I personally cannot see any parameters that would enable this to be done as all references are different so cannot do an If statement to say if this matches. Any help would be much appreciated. File also attached

With the above I need to know if it is possible to be able to find out the solution with a formula or similar as the address could be different but the names could be different and they need to be treated as seperate items, really stuck on what the next move would be without going line by line checking. Thanks in advance
 
If the name changes, and the address changes, how would anyone know they were the same people/customer?
Would a search for policies that don't run for a full year help you?
Do you not code policies in your system as REWRITE?
