Hi, i am after a conditional formating formula that will match securities in Sheets Workings to RawData, if found then highlight cell pattern red.

Easy bullets in Excel
If you have a numeric keypad, press Alt+7 on numeric keypad to type a bullet in Excel.
Try this...

Name A2:A6 in Raw with an appropriate name. I have used SECURITY.

Now, use the following Conditional Formatting formula across A2:E5 in Workings:

=ISNUMBER(MATCH(A2,SECURITY,0))

And format as desired...
