comparing data without unique identifier
I am attempting to compare 2 worksheets (one from another agency) and there
is no unique identifier. Each has a specific grant number; one may be OH W-13-L-1, the other W13L1. In addition, the vendor name, although similar, is not usually exactly the same. such as Hunter, J vs. Hunter Estate. I receive the other agency's worksheet via excel and download mine from Access. I could use either program to compare, if I knew what to do! Any suggestions? Thanks! |

You posted a similar question on 18 May to which you received a couple responses. Did those responses help or maybe give you a way to go? Otto "Linda" wrote in message ...

Otto, I was never able to retrieve the messages. When I went to the link
provided in the email, I just got a blank page. I tried looking it up via key words, but nothing appeared. :-( "Otto Moehrbach" wrote: Linda You posted a similar question on 18 May to which you received a couple responses.
