Default Excel Vlookup(I think) question

I have two columns of data. One row has many more cells of data. I want to see if what is in one column is in the next column.

So I have column A and B. A has 1000 Cells of data B has 1500. I need to see if what is in A1 is in any of the 1500 cells in row b. I need to do this for all 1000 lines of data in Column A

Thanks

Couldn't a simple conditional formatting for duplicate content work?

Just a heads up, XLookup is alot better to use than Vlookup.
