Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
I have this code that I got on the internet. please help me where is the possible error, because below macro highlights only the cells but not deleted the common of the sheets.

Public Sub CompareSheets()
Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet
Dim cell As Range, rng As Range
Set ws1 = Worksheets("Sheet1")
Set ws2 = Worksheets("Sheet2")
Set rng = ws1.Range("D2:D1500")
For Each cell In rng
Celladdress = cell.Address
If cell <> ws2.Range(Celladdress) Then
cell.Interior.Color = vbYellow
ws2.Range(Celladdress).Interior.Color = vbYellow
End If
Next cell

End Sub
