![]() I'm trying to clean up a rather large file. The first field of each row is the name of the row, and if this name does not appear anywhere else in the file, or in any of three other files, the row can be eliminated. If it appears 5 times or more, it should be marked as such. So I'm looking for a way to search for the contents of the first row in the entire page and three other pages (minus the field containing the name I'm searching for in the first place) and return the number of hits. I'm sure there is an easy way to do this, but I haven't managed to figure it out yet and time is precious in a computer lab. I'm using Excel 2000 (localised Dutch version). Thanks for your help! -- Brother Laz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brother Laz's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=35521 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=552919 |
