Hi all,
I need to track changes between my original spreadsheet and the returned spreadsheet that has been updated by numerous people in various parts. Currently, I have the original spreadsheet on one tab and the pieces I've received back on another. I'm using an exact formula and then a vlookup formula that references to the second tab to look at every cell in every row and compare it to the "changed" tab to see if changes were actually made. If there is an easy way to do this, please let me know. Below is the formula I'm currently using, but it keeps telling me there's an error at the vlookup right after I2 (I've put *'s around it, but please note, those are just there to show which vlookup it is--they are NOT actually in the formula). It's no different from the one's before it, so I don't see why that one in particular is returning an error. Is there a limit to how many vlookups you can use? Any suggestions/simplifications/help to get this to work will be appreciated! =if(isna(vlookup(B2,returned,1,false)),"NOT YET RETURNED",if(exact(D2,vlookup(B2,returned,3,false) )="FALSE","X",if(exact(E2,vlookup(B2,returned,4,fa lse))="FALSE","X",if(exact(F2,vlookup(B2,returned, 5,false))="FALSE","X",if(exact(G2,vlookup(B2,retur ned,6,false))="FALSE","X",if(exact(H2,vlookup(B2,r eturned,7,false))="FALSE","X",if(exact(I2,***vlook up***(B2,returned,8,false))="FALSE","X",if(exact(J 2,vlookup(B2,returned,9,false))="FALSE","X",if(exa ct(K2,vlookup(B2,returned,10,false))="FALSE","X",i f(exact(L2,vlookup(B2,returned,11,false))="FALSE", "X",if(exact(M2,vlookup(B2,returned,12,false))="FA LSE","X",if(exact(N2,vlookup(B2,returned,13,false) )="FALSE","X",if(exact(O2,vlookup(B2,returned,14,f alse))="FALSE","X",""))))))))))))) |
