Default Cross Referencing 3 Lists

Hi,

Thanks for the advice. This is my file if you want a look.
(http://www.freefilehosting.net/download/3ffj5) I've included my macro code.
It start to work but then crashed.

Any help with a rewrite would be much appreciated.

I was looking at the thread you have in the Programming newsgroup. It
looks like your code, after making the suggested corrections, is pretty much
what you want. I would rewrite the code to eliminate all but one of the
"For" loop statements and use the "Find" statement to do all the work, but
what you have will work. Come back if you're interested in a rewrite of
what you have. HTH Otto

Not all the lists. For example, I want to compare list 1 with lists 2 and
3.
I want to see which of the genes in list 1 appear in lists 2 and 3, etc.

I was looking at colour coding the genes that appear, but it could be
easier
to put into a seperate sheet?

3 lists? In 2 lists only? HTH Otto

Hi,

I'm looking for some advice as to how to cross reference 3 lists of
genes
that I am researching.

I have these lists in a single workbook, with each list in its own
worksheet. The lists start in Cell A1 and vary in size from 337 genes
in
the
smaller list and upto 1489 genes in the largest.

Basically, each list refers to the genes of interest in a particular
region.
I'm therefore looking for a way to cross reference these lists to show
which
genes appear in all three regions.

Hope someone can help!

Thanks

Mark
