    Verify matching patterns between two columns

    Based on the attachment, I am looking for a formula in C1, C2 etc of sheet 2 to show up whether or not the Entries in A1 and B1 of Sheet 2 match up with entries anywhere in Sheet 1, then A2 and B2 match up with entries anywhere in Sheet 1 ...

    If someone can help me, that would be great.

    Try:

    =IF(SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$10=A1),--(Sheet1!$B$1:$B$10=B1))>0,"Yes","No")

    adjust ranges to suit and copied down.
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
