This can be useful, for instance to determine which rows you have deleted from an Excel file, given you still have a copy of the original.
Export the Excel file (and original) to csv.
Then use some standard GNU tools:

cat file.csv original.csv | sort | uniq -u

These, and other, GNU tools are also available to Microsoft Windows users, see for instance MINGW.
