Default How do I highlight data differences in workbook

Roger, that's a good way - I had thought of that in my sleep somehow
and was just about to post it - minus the bit about grouping the
sheets. Hence in B5:

=IF(SUM(A5,'10feb-24 mar'!A5,'31 mar-19th May'!A5)<A5*3,FALSE,TRUE)

Regards,

Mark.

Hi

One way
Click on the first sheet tab, hold down shift and click on the last
sheet tab. This will group the sheets.
In a spare column on the sheet, enter

=IF(SUM('03 Feb':'31 mar - 19th May'!A1)<A1*3,"Different","")
Copy down as far as required.
Now click on any sheet tab to ungroup the sheets

The word Different will show up on each row where the three value are
not the same.

...

I have a workbook which has 3 worksheets named 03 feb, 10feb-24 mar
and
31 mar-19th May. All worksheets have data in columns A-K and have 220
entries. What im trying to do is to be able to match up data but where
its different in column A I need it highlighted.
I.E I have in cell A5 on 03 feb and 10 feb-24 mar the number 4 but in
cell A5 on 31 mar-19 may its different and has the number 9. What I
want to do is where its different I want it highlighted.

Can I do this. Thanks
