Ok, the spreadsheet I am working on deals with security identifiers called
CUSIPS. I get a report each month that lists a bunch of security exceptions
by CUSIP that are outside of policy. I have a list of securtity cusips that
are cleared (meaning they are not exceptions), and I have a spreadsheet with
this list in a range. I have tried using the IF function to match the current
report cusips with the cleared list of cusips (to identify which rows of the
report I can delete) but, for some reason, this is not working. Ideally, I
have been trying to generate a macro that will search for the cleared cusips
and automatically delete the row in which it finds the cleared cusip. I have
been trying to use the If, Then, Else statement in VBA, but I am not very
familiar with the object model just yet so writing the program free hand is
causing me a lot of problems.

Instead of trying to give an example of the spreadsheet in this post, it
would be great if I could send it off to someone who might be willing to take
a look at what I am trying to do...Thanks!
