Default Brain teaser

Here's my goal. Whether tis possible remains an open
question. I have two lists, (each list can be on a
separate excel worksheet or separate file) one with
account numbers and amounts, sorted in order by the
mainframe. Same with the other list. What I would like
to do is compare the lists, update list A with List B
numbers or zero them out if they appear on list A but have
no amounts in list B.

List A List B

Fund Acct# Amount Fund Org # Amount
100 22001 $20.02 100 22001 $30.10
100 22002 30.00 100 22002 $40.24
200 24003 60.00 200 24001 31.00

So in row 2, the figure of $20.02 would be replaced by
$30.10, same situation in row 3, row 4 account 24003
should be zero because it has no value in the current list
B, and List A should be updated to insert a new account
24001 and the amount of $31.O0. I tried nested if
statements, but it was an entirely manual solution. I am
trying to automate. Any help would be great!
