Identify duplicates

Hello,
If I have 2 worksheets.
Both of them have columns with a list of codes.
How can I search for a match in one worksheet for each row that includes a code present in a column in the second worksheet please?
Thank you,

Philippe

RE: Identify duplicates

Hi Jens,

Thank you very much for your help.
I will try that with the VLOOKUP function.
That s the function I was trying to use initially but for whatever reason, it did not seem to work.
I will let you know if I struggle.
Kind Regards,

Philippe

Excel tip:

View a unique list

You have a column with hundreds of entries, and you need to see what unique items are entered in it. Select any cell in that column, hold down Alt and press the down arrow: Excel produces an alphabetically-sorted list of unique entries in that column.
