    Unhappy compare Sheet1 against Sheet2 with highlighting results in Sheet1

    hello everyone
    ...Now, i am stuck with how can i do this another tedious and hard excel problem i dealt with. How can i compare a master list in Sheet1 against actual values in Sheet 2 and with a result of highlighting the values that are in Sheet 2 in "Sheet 1".I hope i am clear...Sorry for my poor English. I will try this way; whatever values i have in sheet 2 that are found in Sheet 1-it should be highlighted (in any color) in Sheet1. I have attach a sample file. Please help me when you can. I would be very very thankful to you.

    Im new to this site, I am actually learning how to post and be registered...and this is the best way so far that i think i can do to ask help from you, the experts.

    best regards,
    mariposa

    I added a named range called "MyList" which encompasses the entire sheet2 column A.

    Then I applied conditional formatting to your C, E and F columns to compare the cells with the values in MyList and color red when there is a match.
