All possible Alpha character combonations
Both sets are always the same?
Sets are of the same length or can they be different lengths? Order of pairs doesn't matter ? Perhaps you can define your requirements (or the context) a bit more explicitly.

Assume the two sets are in A1:A4 and B1:B4
Sub ABD() Dim rw As Long, i As Long, j As Long rw = 0 For i = 1 To 4 For j = i + 1 To 4 If StrComp(Cells(i, 1), Cells(j, 1), _ vbTextCompare) < 0 Then rw = rw + 1 Cells(rw, "C") = Cells(i, 1) & ", " & Cells(j, 2) End If Next Next End Sub -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy wrote in message oups.com...

All possible Alpha character combonations
WOW THAT EXAXTLY WHAT I NEEDED! Thank you so much! I thought i would
be able to munipulate the script to adjust it to diffrent cell ranges in the sheet but i havent figured that out yet(vba rookie). Also how could i change it to be flexible and compare anyehere from 1 to 10 items in each set, becasue the data inputed will vary from 1 to 10 items?? Thank you so much for your help!!!!!!!!
