Here is some code to help you do comparisons:
#1)
Sub Compare2Shts()
For Each Cell In Worksheets("CompareSheet#1").UsedRange
If Cell.Value <> Worksheets("CompareSheet#2").Range(Cell.Address) Then
Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next
For Each Cell In Worksheets("CompareSheet#2").UsedRange
If Cell.Value <> Worksheets("CompareSheet#1").Range(Cell.Address) Then
Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next
End Sub
Sub CompareAnother2Shts()
For Each Cell In Worksheets("CompareSheet#1").Range("A1:J50")
If Cell.Value <> Worksheets("CompareSheet#2").Range(Cell.Address) Then
Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next
For Each Cell In Worksheets("CompareSheet#2").Range("A1:J50")
If Cell.Value <> Worksheets("CompareSheet#1").Range(Cell.Address) Then
Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next
End Sub
#2)
