Comparing Two Columns of Text
 

I have two columns of names and would like to see which names are in
both columns. I believe that they all will match exactly, if I can
compare them. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Heather

Mmm,

Do you need to keep track of multipe "Smith"s for example. i.e. is the
3rd Smith in col A a failure if there are only 2 Smiths in col B?
