I have two tables on the same sheet. The first the user populates with part numbers the second uses Power Query to pull in additional information about the parts on the first list.

If there is no additional data, that part does not appear in the second table

I would like to have some kind of conditional formatting on the first table. If there is a part number on the first table but its not in the second table I want to make the cell formatted in some way (maybe make it red...)

Is this possible since its two separate tables?
