I have done a lot searching on this Group but can't find a routine to
meet my needs.

I have 2 worksheets, Inventory and Parts. Parts is updated weekly and
inventory is my master list. I wish to compare PartID in Col A on
'Parts' to PartID in Col B on 'Inventory' see if new entries exist and,
if they do, add these new PartID's to my inventory.

I have found 2 routines that may be useful, one which checks and finds
new PartID's and another routine which inserts rows and copies and
pastes required formulas. Is is possible for someone to 'join' these 2
routines together to achieve what I need?

Many thanks
Tony

You don't provide any details on what you want to copy or where it should
go, so I copy A:J of the new row and paste it into the bottom of Inventory
starting in column B.

Worked a treat,
