intersection for long list of cells



Hi all, I have two long lists of strings in cells (each
25K entries long) and I'd like to find the indices of
entries that are common between both lists.

I'm hoping to find a faster way of doing this than an
individual search (which takes way to long given the size
of the lists)

Thanks!
