Hi,

I've a scenario when there is any changes of texts string in excel
worksheet X ( source file ) need to make the same changes in another
worksheet Y ( target file ).
Such changes of texts string are only happen in column A and need to
be bold with red colour after texts string are changed in worksheet Y

How to set a VBA macro to check every rows of column A in worksheet Y
to make the changes of texts string based on the same column A of
worksheet X and then bold them with red colour accordingly ?

E.g.

Wrksheet X
Col A
Row
1 ABC
2 BCD-XY-01
3 EFG-00-84
4 GH
5 HJI
6 01-KLJ

Wrksheet Y
Col A
Row
1 BCD-XY
2 EFG
3 GHI
4 KLJ

After changing the texts string in column A under worksheet Y, the
result of both
worksheets will be similar : -
Wrksheet Y & X
Col A
Row
1 ABC
2 BCD-XY-01
3 EFG-00-84
4 GH
5 HJI
6 01-KLJ

Can anyone help on this problem, thanks a lot

Does this macro do what you want?

Sub UpdateYfromX()
Dim C As Range
Dim X As Long
Dim LastRowX As Long
Dim LastRowY As Long
Dim CellsToColor() As String
LastRowX = Worksheets("Wrksheet X").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
LastRowY = Worksheets("Wrksheet Y").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
With Worksheets("Wrksheet X")
ReDim CellsToColor(1 To LastRowX)
For Each C In .Range("A1:A" & LastRowX)
If Worksheets("Wrksheet Y").Range("A:A").Find(What:=C.Value, _
LookAt:=xlWhole) Is Nothing Then CellsToColor(C.Row) = C.Address
Next
.Range("A1:A" & LastRowX).Copy Worksheets("Wrksheet Y").Range("A1")
For X = 1 To LastRowX
If Len(CellsToColor(X)) 0 Then
.Range(CellsToColor(X)).Cells.Font.Color = vbRed
.Range(CellsToColor(X)).Cells.Font.Bold = True
End If
Next
End With
End Sub

Hi Rick,

Thanks for your prompt reply and your codes works pretty well except
that the changes done need to bold with red colour in wrksht Y instead
of wrksht X.

Further, if wrksht X comes from wrkbook "gl-pl2" and wrksht Y from
wrkbook "PL2" and the changes of texts string such as new texts string
added on need to be inserted in that particular row of wrksht Y and
the texts string being modified stay at the existing row of wrksht Y.
These additional requirements needed in case if there is further data
available on other than column A of wrksht Y.

Can your codes include the above changes !.......... thanks

Regards
