Not sure if it is the fastest but my approach would be to put ColA New and
ColA Old into an array, scan the array for differences and write a new
colI
value where the same. I experience faster response than reading each row
in
directly from the sheet.

I was wondering which method people would recommend to do teh following.
There are two workbooks Old.xls and New.xls. I need to compare the
value/string in each cell in Column A in Old.xls with the cells in
Column
A
in New.xls. When matched then the value in Column I in Old.xls must be
added
to the value in the corresponding row in Column I in New.xls
So...is it better to do row by row comparison and a single addition
between
workbooks?
Or should I create an array from the Old.xls with just Column A and
Column
I
and then do the comparison and addition?
Or should I create ranges of Column A in the New.xls and do the
comparison
with an Intersect function?
Or...?
There are always better ways to do things and I would like to see what
others have experienced.
thanks
