Cross validating one values from one column to second column

0

I have data in google sheet. I want a way to cross match if values in column 1 is available on any row in column 2. If available either highlight with any colour or just bold it.

Is this possible on google sheets or MS Excel?

Yes with conditional formatting and custom formula using MATCH or COUNTIF – Scott Craner – 2017-12-28T15:37:16.220

No worries. Make sure you post a copy of your spreadsheet next time to make answering the question easier! Cheers – Chef1075 – 2017-12-30T22:08:30.770
