Default Script that automatically writes

So it will go a little like this:


1- XL looks at all the data in colum A
2- Data in column A is then compared to that in column B
3- Is there are any difference, missing data is appended to column B


Can you explain what you mean by #3 above? What exactly do you consider
a
"difference"? The data in Column A is not anywhere in Column B? Or it
might
be in Column B, but in a different row? Something else, perhaps?


By difference, I mean if the data is not anywhere to be found in
column B.


In that case, the code Bob posted (corrected by me in a subsequent message)
will do what you want. Here is Bob's corrected code that you can copy/paste
into your own VBA code...

Public Sub ProcessData()
* Dim i As Long
* Dim iLastRow As Long
* With Application
* * .ScreenUpdating = False
* * .Calculation = xlCalculationManual
* End With
* With ActiveSheet
* * iLastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
* * For i = 1 To iLastRow
* * * If IsError(Application.Match(.Cells(i, "A").Value, _
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *.Columns(2), 0)) Then
* * * * .Cells(.Range("B1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Row, "B").Value = _
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * .Cells(i, "A").Value
* * * End If
* * Next i
* End With
* With Application
* * .Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
* * .ScreenUpdating = True
* End With
End Sub

Fantastic! it works! thanks a lot.
