Data comparison for duplication
I have two workbooks. I want to compare names in one workbook to names in
another workbook so that I can delete duplicate names. What would be the easiest way to do this? |

Data comparison for duplication
Hi,
Try a formula like: =IF(COUNTIF(A2,[tempTest.xlsx]Sheet2!$B$1:$B$1000)0,1,"No") copy this formula down. If the name is in the other workbook you will get a count of 1. Highlight these formula results and press F5, Special, Formula, and uncheck all but the Numbers options, click OK. Press Ctrl+- (control minus) and choose delete entire row. -- If this helps, please click the Yes button. Cheers, Shane Devenshire "Donna" wrote: I have two workbooks.
