Background Cell Colour-If Data Match
Create an Excel defined name for the range on Sheet2, say s2data, and then
use Conditional Formatting on the range on Sheet1 with a formula of =ISNUMBER(MATCH(A1,s2Data,0)) and set the colour to suit. -- --- HTH Bob (change the xxxx to gmail if mailing direct) "Vadhimoo" wrote in message ...
