Default How do you compare 2 different spreadsheets for duplication?

If you have 2 different excel spreadsheets, they have the same column
headings and you want to compare the 2 (they are both lenghty 279 lines) to
make sure there is no duplication -- what would be the best and most
efficient way to do this?
