Default Comparing 2 blocks of text and data

I have 2 blocks of text and data.

Block 1 stretches from A7 to AF 300 with text and data in all columns and
rows.
In column AA there are UPC numbers.

Block 2 stretches from AH7 to AW 200 with text and data in all columns and
rows.
In column AW there are UPC numbers.

What I want to do is to match Block 2 with Block 1 via the UPC numbers.
When done, the text and data in the two blocks of data are now in the same
row €“ all based upon the UPC numbers with a total of 200 rows. The extra 100
rows in Block 1 are either deleted or appear at the bottom of Block 1 because
of no matches in Block 2.

Can this be done in Excel?
How?
