    Conditional Formatting - highlight the Odd one(s) Out

    Hello,

    Sheet 1 column E has a random list of railcars.

    Sheet 2 A1:A30 has every railcar available.

    I need a formula for Sheet 2 A1:A30 that will identify which railcars have not been entered on Sheet 1. I will highlight them yellow.

    Please help.

    Thank you!

    Select Sheet2!A1:A30, Conditional Format>New Rule>Use Formula

    =ISERROR(Match(A1, Sheet1!$E:$E,0))

    Does that work for you?
