Add a third worksheet and use the following formula

=IF(Sheet1!A1=Sheet2!A1,"No Change","Changed")

you need to change sheet1/sheet2 in the formula to matcch the names o
your worksheets

If invoice # is cell A1, then start from there, then drag the formul
down and across as far as required

All the cells with Changed in them are the ones you are looking fo

There's an add-in called Compare.xls that you may find useful. See:
