Default query a spreadsheet

Thank you Dave this worked because we do not have a unique identifying
number. I do not know how to get a list of those customers attending the
conference who are not in my member base...is there a "not equal" operator I
can use in the criteria of my query that will display records from my
conference that do not appear in my database? Thanks so very very much!

Well, if you're looking to do a query, the best thing to do would be to
import those two sheets into Access and run a query of the link of customer
names.

I.e., a select query from the customer address list, filtering for those
records which also appears in your registered customer list.

Another thing to try, which I've never done before, but I believe can be
done, is to use Excel's MS query tool to query those two data tables as
separate Excel workbooks.

I have two spreadsheets. One is a complete list of our customer database and
the other is customers who registered for a conference. I'm looking for a
way to pull out from our excel list only the customers who registered so I
can do some mailouts to them.
