For example, you may need to find out which values exist in two lists and highlight differences. There are several ways to compare two sheets or even workbooks in Excel. You can use functions like EXACT, IF, Lookup or Conditional Formatting to compare lists of data. In this blog, Happy's trainers Sal and Ebbie will use Conditional Formatting to highlight values in one list that do not appear in another list."}
