I am up and running. Thank you so much, especially for your quick

responses.

Mac,

Use this:

=If(ISERROR(Match(D2,$A$2:$A$29,FALSE)),"This is not in our

table!","Ok")

Use copy and paste of the cell, not of the cell contents (don't select

the
formula from the editing bar). Simply select the cell prior to using

Copy,
and the formula should update correctly.

I have one problem as I continue to build this. I have the formula

reading
each row (cell with new value) and then it looks it up in my table

(old
table). However, the formula copies down exactly for every row - thus

all
the rows equal what the first row returns. I do not have it locked

with $
and when I try to manually change it, it updates all the cells to

equal
the
formula I changed. How do I get each row to read the cell value for

its
row?
Ex. If(ISERROR(Match(D2,$A2:$A29,FALSE)),"This is not in our

table!","Ok")
this formula copies all the way down, I want it to be D3, D4, D5

extra.

Thank you!

Mac,

The MATCH function will return an Error if there is no match, so you

can
check to see if you new value is in your old table by using a

formula
like

=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(CellWithNewValue,OldTable,False) ),"This isn't in

our
Table!","OK")

where you need to change CellWithNewValue and OldTable to valid cell

and
range references, respectively.

Good Morning!

I have a list of products that comes from another group.

Occassionaly
a
new
customer is added and they do not inform us - when we run our

formulas
to
populate the numbers it doesn't populate; however, it is difficult

to
notice
because there are not always numbers for the products so there are

many
blank
cells and it just appears that there were no orders. I am looking

for
a
way
to sweep through the list of products and find any products that

do
not
match
my tabled list of current products on the next worksheet.

Any assistance in greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Mac
