I have given a macro below

when do you want this macro to be invoked( under what event ) or do you want to invoke th macro periodically

the macro is

Sub test()
Dim r As Range, c As Range, j As Integer, k As Integer
With Worksheets("sheet1")
Set r = Range(.Range("A1"), .Range("A1").End(xlDown))
r.Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
For Each c In r
j = c.Row
k = c.Column
If c = Worksheets("sheet2").Cells(j, k) Then
c.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next c
End With
End Sub


Please rememner that only if A1 or any other cells in column A of sheet 1 is same as the entry in the same address in shseet2 that cell in sheet 1 will be red. suppose the same entry in any cell in sheet1 is found in some other address in sheet 2 the original cell in sheet 1 wil Not be red.
