    Compare data in two columns and create a data on third column based on the comparison

    Hi all,
    I am trying to figure out this problem since a long time. I donot have a programming background at all and I hope someone helps.
    I have data for 25,000 subjects. For instance:

    A B
    99 99
    00 00
    03 01
    99 99
    99 01

    I want to create a column C which highlights or has a mark if there is 99 and 99 in both columns A and B.

    Thanks
    Shilpa
