    Conditional Formatting to highlight differences between two sheets with the same table.

    Example.xlsx

    Hello,

    Background: I manage a variety of contracts with several operators, I use a weekly report and I want to compare differences between the two instantly. I currently have a COUNTIF conditional formatting rule which highlights contracts that have ended and new contract entries, but I'm struggling to use conditional formatting to highlight when a contract has been removed from one operator and given to another.

    I have attached an example, showing the sort of highlighting I am looking to put in place. Look forward to hearing from you guys, you have proven very helpful in the past.

    Arthur.

    As you need CF from a different sheet you have to use Named Ranges.

    This formula gives TRUE or FALSE as result and works for what you need.

    =SUMPRODUCT((OpLast=$A2)*(ContractLast=$D2))=0
