How to Use Excel’s IF Statement to Check if Two Cells Match: Step-by-Step Guide and Formula

You can use the following formula to check if two cells in Excel match and return “True” if they do:

=IF(A1=B1,TRUE,FALSE)

In this formula, “A1” and “B1” are the two cells that you want to compare. If they match, the formula will return “True”, and if they don’t match, it will return “False”.

You can also simplify the formula by omitting the “IF” and “TRUE/FALSE” functions, like this:

=A1=B1

This formula will return “True” if the values in cells A1 and B1 match, and “False” if they don’t.
