That should preserve the duplicates in col A also, to answer your previous

Hhm.., that's quite true where non-matches occur. I suppose that might
be a better way to go when comparing 2 or more items. Won't help my
data logger file parser, though. It just loops 1 array, but it does
parse each element into a temp array for the test. It runs blazingly
fast on my machine (1.6Ghz Intel dual-core on a Dell Precision series
laptop w/2GB RAM).
