If you combined it with a IF function, yeah, you could do that. Shorter
function (and more clear what your doing) would be to use MATCH

=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A1,'Sheet1'!A:A,0)),"Y","")
placed into B1 and copied down will let you know if the value in column A is
in column A of Sheet1.

Is it possible to do a lookup that allows you to look at another tab and say
if it's in that list then tag it with a yes? and if its not leave it blank?

for example:

Column A Column B
A Y
B
C Y

the corresponding tab will have some that match Column A -- if there is one
corresponding can Column B show a Y

Thanks
