Hi,
Try this Array formula =AND(A1:A10=B1:B10) This is an array formula which must be entered by pressing CTRL+Shift+Enter 'and not just Enter. If you do it correctly then Excel will put curly brackets 'around the formula {}. You can't type these yourself. If you edit the formula 'you must enter it again with CTRL+Shift+Enter.

Hi LEon
Use the exact formula i.e. Col A = Animal 1, Col B = Animal 2 A2 = Dog, B2 = Dog. formula in C2 = exact(A2,B2) returns true If A2 = Cat then C2 would return false. -- Rob Gaffney "Leon" wrote: Hi all How do I compare two alike ranges with one formula and get result as true or false.
