I want to highlight cells in column B that are different from cell on the same row in column A
| A | B |
|---|---|
| ABC | ABC |
| DEF | GHI |
| GHI | GHI |
GHI in column B, in the DEF-row should be highlighted.
The table contains hundreds of rows.
I have read several guides but they all seem to be either based on comparing a single cell with a whole column or you have to manually adjust the formula (something like =EQ(C15;D15)) for each row.
For basically everything else you any modern spreadsheet software is "smart" when you apply the same operation for all values in a column, e.g., if the formula in C1 is =A1+B1 and you copy it to C2 the formula changes to =A2+B2. I am looking for something similar for conditional formatting.
