    Check and Highlight!

    I have two columns A & B. I need to first check if the Value in Column
    B exists in Column A if yes then Highlight the Value in Column A.

    So...

    Name1 Name2
    Dude Harry
    Joe Sally
    Bob Joe

    Result:
    the cell with Joe in Name1(ColumnA) should be Highlighted.

    RE: Check and Highlight!

    You can use conditional formating, with a formula like this:
    =(MATCH(A2,$B$2:$B$4,0)>0)
    It will be true if the value on cell A2 is present in the list in B2:B4.
    This can be applied to cell A2 and then copy format to the other cells.
