One way is to use a helper column - in your first file enter in colum
B
=ISNUMBER(MATCH(A1, Sheet2!A$1:A$1200, 0))
and copy down.
Then use autofilter (Data/Filter/Autofilter) and filter for the FALS
values
in column B. Then delete the filtered values (or delete the entir
rows).
Turn off Autofilter. Delete the helper column w/the Match function.
If you
just deleted the unwanted data (not the entire row) you'll have gaps i
your
data after you turn off the filter, so you will need to sort your dat
to
eliminate the gaps (Data/Sort).
Be sure to backup before trying.

The formula works fine, since I use the french version of Excel I didn
cut and paste your formula but rewrite it and I forgot to put the $.
realize that last night in my sleep!
Thanks a lot I own you one JMB
Jim Jackson Thanks to you too for your time and script
