Compare two lists of data to find new entries
I currently run a daily report from a CRM database to monitor my sales teams
activities with customers. Each activity has a 'unique' reference. My aim is to compare the report (which is in excel) from one day with the new report to show the new 'activities'. In simple terms I want to say if activity 'x' is in the new list the show the information from that row on a new worksheet so I can see at a glance the new activities. |

How about an alternative?
Insert a new column near that unique reference (say column B is inserted and column A is the unique reference). Then in B2 (Row 1 has headers???), put this formula: =isnumber(match(a2,sheet2!a:a,0)) and drag down. You'll end up with True's if there's a matching reference and False for no match. Then apply data|filter|autofilter to that range--you can show the True/False as you please.
