Hello,

I am trying to develop a spreadsheet to track implementation of
patches/service packs on different machines. I have 2 columns (A & B)
representing different machines. Each column contains a KB or Q article
number (ex: KB823803; Q147222). Each column is sorted. I need to be able
to compare the entries on each row. If they are the same, indicate by either:

1. Change the backgroun color of the two cells to green if they are the
same.
2. Add "same" in the C column, same row as the row being compared.
3. Any other simply and obvious indication that the 2 values being compared
are the same.

If they are different, basically do the same thing, just indicate they are
different.

Can anyone suggest how I can quickly accomplish this? I am somewhat
familiar with VBscripting if that helps.

TIA,
Rich
