Try the power and ease of a pivot table ..
In the 3rd sheet,
1. Copy n paste special as values the table from the 1st sheets (with the
col headers). Repeat the copy n paste special as values for the data only
from the 2nd sheet, paste it below the earlier. 15 seconds manual effort. The
order of pasting
doesn't matter but there should be only 1 row of col headers.
2. Create a pivot on the merged table. In Layout, place "Item" in ROW, "Qty"
and "Amt" in DATA (it'll show as Sum of ..). Click to finish. In the pivot
sheet, drag "Data" and drop it over "Total" to re-arrange into columns.
That's it. The end results will be exactly what you seek. Another 15 seconds
effort. You're done within 30 seconds or so. Success? hit the YES below.
