Conditional Formatting using data in Sheet2 to change colors of cells in sheet1

I have an office lottery pool. Each of us pick 6 numbers from a range of 1 through 60. This is on sheet1. Sheet2 contains the actual drawn numbers. Rows on sheet2 are labelled by week number. I want all the cells in sheet1 to have conditional formatting that will change the cell color to red if they match any cell from the cells that contain the drawn numbers in sheet2. Can someone please help me on this?

I actually asked this question in a LibreOffice forum because thats what I have at home and thought that maybe it would work for Excel at my work place. But unfortunately the answer I got only works for LibreOffice. I understand that cross posting is frowned upon but I really would like to know how I can get this to work on Excel. Below is what i got to work in the other spread sheet program. I will attache my document without any conditional formatting. Thanks.

In Excel you can't refer explicitly to a range reference in another sheet with conditional formatting. To get round this, however, you just need to define a named range.

So, I defined a named range call numbers to cover the range B1 to F10 in Sheet2, in order to allow you to add some more data as the weeks unfold.

Then I select the range B2:F41 in Sheet1 (again, to allow new names to be added), then clicked on Conditional Formatting | New Rule | Use a formula... , and then put this formula in the dialogue box:

=AND(B2<>"",COUNTIF(numbers,B2))

Then you can click on the Format button | Fill tab and choose Red, and then OK your way out. Excel will automatically adjust the cell references to suit all the cells that had been selected, and colour the appropriate cells red.

Hope this helps.
