Any help on starting this would be greatly appreciated;
I have to find "new" accounts in a workbook.
Process wise, I think i need to open the "February" workbook,
and row by row look for the account number (column A) in the "January"
workbook.

If it's there, ignore it,
if NOT-then it's new and I need to add its entire row to a new sheet in
the
Feb. book.

Thanks.
