Default Comparing Prices in two excel sheets

Hi!

I receive prices from various suppliers on a monthly basis and would
like to compare them. The problem I have is that the price lists are
not in the same format and the product descriptions differ in the way
that they are presented. See example below:

Price list 1:

Code Description
Price
2004 Amoxycillin 125mg Syrup ---- 100ml £0.39
4126 Amoxycillin 250mg Capsules ---- 21s £0.23
0126 Amoxycillin 250mg Capsules - 500s £7.32
2005 Amoxycillin 250mg Syrup ---- 100ml £0.50
0125 Amoxycillin 500mg Capsules ---- 100s £3.48
4125 Amoxycillin 500mg Capsules ---- 21s £0.38
2006 Amoxycillin SF 125mg Susp ---- 100ml £0.36
2007 Amoxycillin SF 250mg Susp ---- 100ml £0.46
2008 Amoxycillin SF Sachets 3g ---- 2s £3.30

Price list 2:

PIP Code Product Description Strength Pack Price
761-7624 Amoxycillin Caps 250mg 21 £0.25
761-0033 Amoxycillin Caps 250mg 500 £6.73
761-7897 Amoxycillin Caps 500mg 21 £0.43
761-0009 Amoxycillin Caps 500mg 100 £2.99
761-1627 Amoxycillin S/F Sachets 3g 2 £3.39
761-1221 Amoxycillin S/F Susp 125mg 100ml £0.48
761-1239 Amoxycillin S/F Susp 250mg 100ml £0.49
761-0397 Amoxycillin Syrup 125mg 100ml £0.38
761-0405 Amoxycillin Syrup 250mg 100ml £0.51

Is there some sort of VBA code that I can write to do all the hard
work for me?


Thanks very much in advance.
