Default Compare two worksheets for missing information

The theory still holds. (Using your example), in Sheet1 E1 enter

=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$A$10000,1,FALSE)

This presumes your sheet2 is actually called Sheet2

The repeat on Sheet2 replacing the Sheet2 reference with Sheet1 in the
formula

If this returns all #N/As then almost certainly other ways would do the same
as the data does not 'match'. This can be caused by invisible characters in
the data or one set of data being 'text', while the others are 'numbers',
although they may look the same.

If you still have problems get back
