Question : Excel macro that would delete rows if ID numbers match

I have an Excel workbook with two worksheets containing name-and-address data. In both worksheets, the first column contains ID numbers. I'd like a macro that deletes the row from the FIRST worksheet if there is a matching ID number in the SECOND worksheet.

One possible way to do this would be to append the data from the second worksheet to the first worksheet and then delete BOTH rows if there is a duplicate pair.

Thanks in advance for any help.
