Cross referencing data across different workbooks
 
Hi

I have a workbook of data and I need to cross reference it with a numbers of
other work books. The main workbook contains data relating to different
items which are identified by name. I basically need to isolate the items
on the main workbook which do not appear on the other work books.
Many thanks
Luke

Cross referencing data across different workbooks
 
You're asking to create a relational db.

This type of thing is more easily handled by Access.

You could, I suppose, create formulas which reference other workbooks, but
this gets unwieldy with more than two workbooks.

Is it possible for you to consolidate the different workbooks into one
workbook and run formulas between the workbook's sheets?
