I'm looking for help on the best way to compare two
different spreadsheets (in different workbooks). Each spreadsheet is a report of open receivables. Workbook 1 is last week's report with notes. Workbook 2 is this week's report without notes. If an item exists in both workbooks, I want to copy the notes from Workbook 1 and put them in workbook 2 (so the user doesn't have to research the item all over again). Not sure if 2 arrays should be (or can be used) and or how to compare fields in both arrays to find the same item. I could read a cell in Workbook 1 and then see if it exists in Workbook 2 but then I would be taking each item in Workbook 1 and reading thru Workbook 2. That doesn't seen very efficient. I could read a cell in Workbook 1 and run thru Workbook 2 until I find a cell that is equal to or greater than the same key field in Workbook 2. I'm just wondering if there is an easier, better, or more efficient way to accomplish this. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you for the help.... |
