In Sheet1 (assuming list1 is here) in column B and copy down:

=IF(ISNA(MATCH(A2,Sheet2!A:A,0)),IF(ISNA(MATCH(A2, Sheet2!B:B,0)),"","Matche**d"),"Matched")

This will check entries in column A of list1 against columns A &B of list2
(on Sheet2)and put "Matched" in B if a match is found.

I have two lists of data that I want to compare to see if there are
any common entries. should I do this using a vlookup or matching
function? or other?

as below, the data is formatted differently in each list- this first
list is a combination of 7 and 10 digit codes, the second has both the
7 and 10 digit code for each entry:

List 1
aaaaaaa
bbbbbbbbbb
cccccccccc
ddddddd

List 2
xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx
yyyyyyy yyyyyyyyyy
zzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzz
