Comparing text strings in cells

A

Andy

A cell contains a number of text strings which form sentences. Text from
another source is pasted into another cell via the edit bar, it may be
exactly the same or not. The question is, is it possible for excel to
highlight where any differences occur between to contents of the cells - the
pasted in text would be highlighted perhaps to show the variations
