Alright, first time posting was yesterday and you guys saved me! This next question's easy too, but as I stated yesterday, I'm very new to VBA.

Situation:
I want to compare values from one range to values to another range and color differentiate the True values and False values.

Here's what I have: (note - I'd like to keep K column values static and controlled by me, not found by Excel)

Sub ranger()
Dim Range1 As Range, Range2 As Range

Set Range1 = Worksheets("Extract").Range("K2:K204")
Set Range2 = Worksheets("Extract").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

For Each Cell In Range1

If Not InterSect(Range2, Range1) Is Nothing Then

ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = 32

Else

ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = 35

End If
Next
End Sub


However, anytime I run the code, it only colors my current selection and only colors it 35. How do I compare only 'K' values and all 'K' values?

Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
I think you misundertood what the Intersect() function does...

It doesn't compare the values in two ranges, it compares the cell addresses of two ranges and identifies the cell addresses which they have in common.

If you have Range1 and Range2, then Intersect(Range1,Range2) returns the range coloured in yellow below, regardless of the values in the cells:-

If you want to compare the values in the cells, you'll need to cycle through the individual cells one at a time, I think.

If you want to compare all the values in Range1 with all the values in Range2 and highlight any which are in common, then as far as I'm aware you'd have to use nested loops something like this:-
Code:
[FONT=Fixedsys]dim cell1 as range[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]dim cell2 as range[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]for each cell1 in range1[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]  for each cell2 in range2[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]    if cell1.value=cell2.value then[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]      cell1.interior.color=vbyellow[/FONT]

(Typed directly into post - not tested.)

The reason your code only ever highlights the active cell is that, although you're cycling through the cells in Range1, you never change the active cell, and your colour change statement is applied to the active cell.

"Object required" error...

From your addition I get:

Code:
Sub ranger()

Dim Range1 As Range, Range2 As Range
Dim cell1 As Range, cell2 As Range
Set Range1 = Worksheets("Extract").Range("K2:K204")
Set Range2 = Worksheets("Extract").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
  
  For Each cell1 In Range1
        For Each cell2 In Range2
        
        If cell1.Value = cell2.Value Then
        
        cell2.Interior.ColorIndex = 34
        
        Else
        
        cell2.Interior.ColorIndex = 36
    
        End If
        
  Next cell2
  Next cell1
End Sub]

Seriously, I'm at my wits end with this one. I cannot figure out what to do.

I get a subscript out of range error now. Please, I am new to this kind of code and I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.

Code:
Sub ranger()
Dim Range1 As Range, Range2 As Range
Dim c1 As Range, c2 As Range
Set Range1 = Worksheets("Extract").Range("K2:K204")
Set Range2 = Worksheets("Extract").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
  
  For Each c1 In Range1.Cells
        For Each c2 In Range2.Cells
        
        If c1.Value = c2.Value Then
        
        c2.Interior.ColorIndex = 34
        
        Else
        
        c2.Interior.ColorIndex = 36
    
        End If
        
  Next c2
  Next c1
End Sub

Your Range2 isn't valid: Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row returns a row number, not a range.

Perhaps you mean:-
Code:
[FONT=Fixedsys]Set Range2 = Worksheets("Extract").Range("A1:A" & Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row)[/FONT]

Also, you should remove this line:-
Code:
[FONT=Fixedsys]cell2.Interior.ColorIndex = 36[/FONT]
because no matter how many cells you match successfully and change their colour to blue, as soon as they fail to match against another cell, their colour changes to yellow again. You would have to set the non-match colour at the start of the program.

I ended up with this:-
Code:
[FONT=Fixedsys]Option Explicit[/FONT]
 
[FONT=Fixedsys]Sub ranger()[/FONT]
 
[FONT=Fixedsys]  Dim Range1 As Range, Range2 As Range[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]  Dim cell1 As Range, cell2 As Range[/FONT]
 
[FONT=Fixedsys]  Set Range1 = Worksheets("Extract").Range("K2:K204")[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]  Set Range2 = Worksheets("Extract").Range("A1:A" & Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row)[/FONT]
 
[FONT=Fixedsys]  Range2.Interior.ColorIndex = 36 [/FONT] 
[FONT=Fixedsys]  For Each cell1 In Range1[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]    For Each cell2 In Range2[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]      If cell1.Value = cell2.Value Then[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]        cell2.Interior.ColorIndex = 34[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]      End If[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]    Next cell2[/FONT]
[FONT=Fixedsys]  Next cell1[/FONT]
 
[FONT=Fixedsys]End Sub[/FONT]
Is that the sort of thing you're trying to achieve?
