Default Conditional Formatting - Lookup Range


Hello all,

I have a spreadsheet with 79,000 cells of information in rows and
columns. On a separate worksheet I have 5,000 cells of information.

I would like any information in the first sheet that is in the second
sheet to turn to red.

For example.

Sheet1, column A
hellothere
howareyou
iamfine

Sheet2, column A
hellothere
iamfine

I would like the two strings in sheet one which appear in sheet 2 to
turn red, leaving the middle string black.

Is there a way to do a lookup to compare the cell value to a range
using conditional formatting?

Thanks for any help.

Mxx
