Along the same lines as Jay's suggestion...
Myrna Larson and Bill Manville have developed a compare that's very nice.

look for compare.xla
But the bad news is that this does a cell-by-cell comparison. A1 compares to
A1, x99 to x99, etc.
If you insert/delete a row or column, then this won't work very well.

Other alternatives that may work depending on what kind of differences you're
looking for:
Save each worksheet as a .csv file and use any comparison program you want to
compare two text files.
MSWord can compare two documents (or plain old text files), too.

Is there a way to compare 2 spreadsheets?
Almost like a Unix 'diff' command.
I have several variants of certain large spreadsheets with only minor
differences - and I want to review them. Find the differences and reconcile them.
Any suggestions?
Thx.
