HEre's how I might do it. Details depend on what you want to do with
matches/mismatches:

Assuming your lists are in columns A and B, in C1 place formula =A1=B1.
Returns TRUE if A and B match, returns FALSE if they don't. Copy
formula down column C.
To show if the lists match exactly D1=AND(C1:C10000)
To count the number of mismatches D2=COUNTIF(C1:C10000, FALSE)
You could also use Autofilter/conditional formatting to highlight
and/or display the mismatches.
