Comparing data in tables

[Gerrym]

I have two Tables, A and B. Both have the same
structures, keys etc. Both are downloads from another
Table at different times. I would like to be able to
compare the data in these two tables to highlight the
different records. Can anyone advise how to do this,
please.

I would use conditional formatting with a formula like

=COUNTIF($H$1:$H$1000,A1)>0

for the first and

=COUNTIF($A$1:$A$1000,H1)>0

in the other

and set a cell colour (pattern)

Use conditional formatting:

Let's say the tables are in A1100 and G1:J100, respectively.

Select A1100, with A1 the active cell, then Format/Conditional Formatting.
In the first box, select Formula Is (instead of Cell Value Is), and in the
formula box type =A1<>G1, and select a format.

Then select G1:J100, and repeat the above steps. (The formula is the same for
both areas.)
