How to identify when similar records appear in two sets of data
I have a complete list of employees (Sheet A), and a second list containing
names of people who need to complete some paperwork (Sheet B). I would like to be able to compare the two lists and add a X to a new column in Sheet A for each employee who appears on Sheet B. Right now we're trying to do this manually, and it seems like there ought to be a way to do it through Excel! Thanks for any help! |
