help me out with this - it's killing me..
I have a huge problem. I have a number of worksheets with text data in 4 columns. the task is to find copies of text in same columns of 2 sheets and do that for all pairs of sheets. the result i need is a new sheet with information what common objects in same columns does each pair of sheets have. for example : sheet1 and sheet2 have: text1, text5, text9 in column A anothertext1, anothertext4 in column B no common objects in column C no common objects in column D i'm not that so good in VBA, but i really need this to be done... i will really appreciate your help -- popovsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------ popovsky's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=25309 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=388985 |

Hi,
You can use the countif worksheet function, then sort per result. Regards Jean-Yves "popovsky" wrote in message ... I have a huge problem.

Hi again,
I was thinking of using a normal excel formula On a new sheet, insert the Countif formula, loooking for value A1 on sheet1 and counting in column A on sheet 2. Fill down the formula. If result =1 then it is a duplicate.

the problem is that the source xls file with data is each time generated by a different program (i extract data from another place) - so i would prefer using a script, other than filling a number of sheets with formulas... -- popovsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------ popovsky's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=25309 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=388985 |
