![]() HI Guys, i was wondering if some could help me with this one, i'm trying to create an algorithm that will match between to lists and copy the match data from list 2 into list 1. Its for and order system, List 1 contains information of all orders made, and the orders can have more than one order line, with each line representing and item bought. List 2 comtains the Invoice data, but this is where it gets complicated as the invoices can come in for an entire order or for each order line or even worse a partial payment for an order line. The other thing is the invoice list doesn't have the order line only the order number and price, where as the first list shows the order number, order line and price. Basically there's a 1-1, 1-many on many-1 relationship on an order line level. To make it more complicated there's no limit on order lines per order and there's no limit on how many invoices per order. Though one restriction is an invoice will not come in to pay for 1 order line and part of another. Also i need it to create a new table from list 2 of the invoice it couldn't match. Can anyone help me on this, i know its a bit long winded and complicated but our company is totally backward and i don't think there going to be a change in the process anytime soon. -- DDONNI ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DDONNI's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=15443 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=270406 |
