Default Macro to compare then copy if string found

Hi,

I have two worksheets of data. I would like excel to be able to look
in two columns which contain different characters however they should
have a string of letters and numbers which are the same.

For example sheet 1 column A cell 1 may have ABC010456A and in sheet 2
column A ot may be CDA#010456A

I would want the find function to find what they have in common and
then copy the value for the same row but column i

Please someone help.....trying to compare over a 1500 rows is very
very very time consuming.

It's much appreciated.

Thanks

Stuart
