Compare two columns
I am looking to compare information in column G to column H. These are
number formats as below. I found this formula =OR(EXACT(G3, H2:H427)) but its returning False on all lines. What I'm thinking is happening is that the next line will read (G4, H3:H427) so the H column is moving down each time. What am I doing wrong? I have approx 430 lines that I need to compare to see if they show in the other column. Can you help me please? G H 0000756892 0000829670 |

Compare two columns
Jennifer,
Use =OR(EXACT(G3, $H$2:$H$427)) but enter it using Ctrl-Shift-Enter instead of just enter, since it is an array formula. HTH, Bernie MS Excel MVP "Jennifer Hammonds" <Jennifer wrote in message ...
