Hi Denise

You don't say which one is correct so you will have to change the
formula as appropriate.
I would be inclined to make a brand new Sheet, leaving all of the other
data intact.


First, mark the range of column A that is populated on Sheet1Copy go to
cell A1 of your new sheet, Sheet3 and in cell A1 Paste
On Sheet3 enter
B1=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!$A$1:$A$1000,2,0) this will give the Account Name
C1=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!$A$1:$A$1000,3,0) this will give the VAT number

I have assumed rows 1 to 1000 are filled, change as appropriate.
Change reference to Sheet2 if required

Regards

Roger Govier

I have two worksheets, both with similar data. Say columns are Acc No, Acc
Name and VAT number. Unfortunately the VAT number does not correspond on
each worksheet. How can I populate 1 worksheet with the VAT number so that
the data is collected on one worksheet? I have tried VLookup, but I'm not
really conversant with it so would appreciate any help.
Many thanks
Denise
