hi Plz find attached the possible solution based on my understanding of the problem.
The solution uses the following logic: =SUMPRODUCT(($C$2:$C$15=$B2)*1)>0 conditional formatting in B2 to B15 =SUMPRODUCT(($B$2:$B$15=$C2)*1)>0 conditional formatting in c2 to c15 Let me know if this was found helpful or you wanted to accomplish sthg else. regards, Pal.
