Importing information from 2 workbooks into a 3rd one
 
Hi, I need some help with importing information from 2 different workbooks
into a third one. The problem that I have is the following: the reference
points from where the information needs to be pulled from are not the same
cells every day but information in column A that point to the information in
column B in the same row that need to be pulled into the 3rd workbook. In
Detail: in ressource workbook 1 I have the order # in column A and shipping
information for each order # in column B. Those shipping information for each
order # need to be pulled into the 3rd workbook in which the order # of
workbook 1 are part of a bigger list; and this list of order # is changing
every day. So I need a formular for importing data which says €œif you find
the same value in column A in workbook 1 and workbook 3, than pull
information from workbook 1, column B same row into workbook 3 column G same
row€ €“ something like that.
Who can help me with that? Every imput is very much appreciated.

you might want to use microsoft access and import both tables with the order number being the key field, then run a query.
