How to find difference in cell contents visibaly looking same
Use this code below to help find differences. You may have a problem with
capitalization where one character is a small letter and the other a capital
letter. Use UCASE() on bot characters strings to make them the same.
Sub teststring()
comparestr = "124"
If Len(comparestr) < Len(Range("B2").Text) Then
MsgBox ("String Length are different : " & _
Len(comparestr) & "/" & Len(Range("B2")))
Else
For i = 1 To Len(comparestr)
If Mid(comparestr, i, 1) < Mid(Range("B2"), i, 1) Then
MsgBox ("Char " & i & " is different : " & _
Mid(comparestr, i, 1) & "/" & Mid(Range("B2"), i, 1))
End If
Next i
End If
End Sub

I have two cells in different sheets which looks like contents are
same.
But excel thinks that the contents are different coz it giving error
in vlookup, arrey, if formulas.
I have tried to trim the same but of no use.
If I type the content ALPHAGEO, then i get the results but otherwise
only errors.
I tried to press F2 and see the contents if there is leading or
trailing spaces but no.
I tried to compare the same with the IF function, it is says both are
different and IF formula result is false.
Is there is a way to find out what is the difference by any formula or
VBA?
