    Let's say the list on Sheet A is in A2:A1000, and the list on Sheet B is in D2 and down.

    In E2 (or another cell in row 2) on Sheet2, enter the formula

     

    =ISNUMBER(MATCH(D2,'Sheet A'!$A$2:$A$1000,0))

    You can now filter the column with the formulas on the value TRUE.

    Then delete the visible cells in column B.

    Turn the filter off.
