Compare Columns And Replace Values Without Overwriting
Mar 14, 2013
I have 2 sheets similar to below :
Sheet1
apple pc
sony camera
lenovotablet
apple laptop
Sheet2
sony television
lenovopc
I need to compare Column A from Sheet2 with Sheet1 and where the values match, only replace THOSE values in Column B of Sheet1 with those in Column B of Sheet2. Hence, after the replacement, Sheet1 should look like (value for apple remains unchanged).
apple pc
sony television
lenovopc
apple laptop
What would be a formula that would do it ?

I have two columns of adjacent data Call them A & B (although this could differ)
If the data in the second colum is not equal to, blank cell or contains the words "CAT", "DOG" or "ELEPHANT" then the content of the cell in the second column should REPLACE the content of the adjacent cell in column A (in this example) leaving B blank, otherwise column B remains unchanged.

I'm trying to compare values in 2 separate columns to see how many times the same value appears in both columns. Ideally I would be able to insert a range function to compare the values in the column "ID 1" against the values in column "ID 2" and return the count of times that a value appears in both columns. For example 2122, 1112 and 1718 appear in both columns and I would like the formula to return a count of 3.
ID 1ID 2
12342122
45671112
89101718
11122678
13144544
15162324
17189987
19201215
21221928
1976
2576
2345

I have a worksheet where I want to compare values in two of the columns.
In column B there are EAN codes consisting of 13 digits.
In column E there are 5-digit numbers.
What I want to do is to compare the 5 digit number with the EAN code where these digits should be in position 7-12 in the EAN code. Those numbers in column E that doesn't have a match in column B should be marked (for example that the background color of that cell is set to "red").
Example:
B E
XXXXXX12345X 12345 (match - do nothing)
XXXXXX12346X 12346 (match - do nothing)
XXXXXX12348X 12347 (no match - set background color to red)
XXXXXX12349X 12348 (match - do nothing)
XXXXXX12350X 12349 (match - do nothing)
XXXXXX12351X 12352 (no match - set background color to red)
There are more values in column E than B.
In all there are close to 4500 rows so I really could use a nifty macro to do this job.

I have gone through various posts but am unable to get the answer. What I'm trying to do is find if a value (text or number) in Col. A exists anywhere in Col C. and if it does, find the corresponding entry in Col. D and paste it back against the value of Col. A in Col. B. To explain better I have attached a sample excel file Ex1. In the file, the entry "sun" in Col A is present in Col C and the corresponding value in Col D is 24 which should be pasted back against "sun" in Col B.

I have a problem with a certain tool that i've been trying to develop.
I have two sheets in my workbook. In the first one i choose a value from a list (in cell A2). After the value in the list is chosen, certain integers for that value appear in the right columns. (with blanks between them)
Next, I will press a button called "calculate" which works like this: If A2 can be found in Sheet 2 Column "Value" then the macro overwrites the integers found at the right of the A2 from those found in Sheet1.
If Sheet1(A2) is not found in the Column "value" then a new line is inserted at the end of the table like this.
A 1 3 6
Pls help me with this, I have a very close deadline and I don't think I can pull this off by myself in such little time.

I have two list of names, mostly duplicates. List in column B has about 30 more names than the list in Column A and I need to identify which names are in column B that are not in column A. Names are in exact same format since they were pulled from the same data base.

So I have values in Column L3 to AH3 and I would like to use if condition to see which values are less than 10.
I also have other rows where this comparison needs to be done but for now I can't even get simple if condition to work.
this is what I am doing
For Each cell In Range("L3:AH3")
If cell.Value < 10 Then
ActiveCell.Font.Color = vbRed
End If
Next cell
I am not getting any error but for some reason only first cell condition is compared and not the other cells..

I would like to compare two different columns and show only non matching values that exist in Column B but not in Column A in the next cell.
If we assume that my data is:
Column A: Column B:
A Z
B E
C B
D K
E A
So, I would like to show these values in the next cell as follows:
Column A: Column B: Column C:A Z Z
B E K
C B
D K
E A

Basically I have Two Columns.
Column A: Column B:
GN0001 DB0002
DB0002 DP0012
GE0025 GN0001
GR0026 GE0025
DR1235 GR0026
DP0012 DR1235
GS0025
PC128
Column A is the master codes list for a unique product.
Now every time a product is sold, its unique code number is entered into column B.
What I want excel to do is compare Column A and Column B and show me only the codes that DO NOT match.
This way I know which items should be present in store when I do a physical stock check.
So the end result should be:
Column A: Column B: Column C:
GN0001 DB0002 GS0025
DB0002 DP0012 PC128
GE0025 GN0001
GR0026 GE0025
DR1235 GR0026
DP0012 DR1235
GS0025
PC128

Is there a function to compare 2 columns to find all of the values from one column that are not in the other column? Basically my data looks like this:
A........................B.................C
procedure1...........................225-3
........................ 25-1...........22-2
.........................33 .............457
procedure2...........................33-55
.......................35-12...........25-6
.......................12-8.............25-1
procedure3...........................33-89
.....
I have another list of data (just the numbers like columnB) that I want to put in column C and see what is in column C that isn't in column B. The numbers will be arranged in a different order, and there will be data in column B that isn't in column C. What I need to do is find out what is in column C that isn't in column B so that I can go back and define what procedure they fit into (that is a seperate process).

I have a database with 2 un identical columns: A, and B. Each cell in Column A should have an equivelant cell somewhere in column B. I want a code that could compare each cell in column A with each cell in Column B. Cells in A that don't have equivelant in B should have their values printed in column C.

I will copy a report into sheet 1, starting in the same place(A1), on a weekly basis. The headers are: Item, Quantity & Price
Week 1's report shows the following:
Windows 5 $1.00
Doors 6 $1.50
Chairs 7 $2.00
Week 2's report shows the following:
Windows 3 $1.00 (change in quantity)
Tables 7 $5.00 (new item)
Chairs 7 $2.50 (change in price)
I need to have a rolling, unique list on Sheet 2 that will do the following:
- add new line items
- keep old line items while checking to see if the quantity or price has changed.
Therefore, after week 2's report is pasted on sheet 1, Sheet 2 should look like this:
Windows 3 $1.00
Doors 6 $1.50
Chairs 7 $2.50
Tables 7 $5.00
Here's the most important part: There will be formulas in Column D in Sheet 2 that I need to stay with each item. generating the desired result on Sheet 2!

I have a spreadsheet with three years worth of data for a property I manage. Each column has cost data for the year and the specific department/cost for that year as the row value.
I have a column between the years that calculates the percent of gross revenue for the specific department/cost.
I would like to find (or create) a formula that will compare the percentage (or specific cost) for the three years within the specific row and if the increase year over year over year exceeds a trigger value it returns something (check me out/true/false) whatever.
The cost items for the property are in the hundreds so I'm trying to come up with a way to quickly see what specific cost items are going up (or down) more rapidly then what would be considered normal.

I have an Excel macro which works well in comparing two columns A and B. It populates column C with unique values in A and not in B, populates column D with unique values in column B and not in A and puts the values found in both A and B in the fifth column (E).
Data in the columns A and B of Sheet 1 has exceeded 1,048,576 (the maximum allowable in Excel 2007) and i will copy the overflow data in Sheet 2's column A and B and i will like the comparison to continue in the next worksheet.
I need the macro to treat the second worksheet as a continuation of the first sheet and not as a separate data. (The values i am comparing have exceeded 1million).
Sub twocols()
Dim d As Object, na&, nb&, a, b
Dim e, p&, q&, r&, m
Set d = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")

I want to compare 2 columns based on their positive and negative values..
For example,
A B C
ID1 91 -7
ID2 -7 74
ID3 -4 -5
ID4 90 4
ID5 -55 34
ID6 33 3
I want to know 1) which id's have both negative values in both columns B & C, 2) which id's have both positive values in both columns B & C, and which id's have opposite signs in both columns B & C.
I want to have a sum of each one of that..

I am trying to create a macro that will compare several un-formatted workbooks and copy just what I want to a workbook of my one.
I start by having 2 different workbooks opened ("Main" and "Change") side by side like this: 1.jpg
Then i run the macro in my "Main" workbook and it should appear an Userform like it showed in the image below: 2.jpg
This is so that i can manually fill the user form with the correct columns by looking at the excel file, for example:
Ref=E3;City=G3; Data=I3.
Pressing Ok, it fill the "Main" workbook with the matching information so it and closes the "Change" workbook.
At the moment my code is in this stage:
VB:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
myfile = "C:Userssst1brgDesktopRelatorios" & TextBox1.Value
Application.Workbooks.Open Filename:=myfile
Windows.Arrange ArrangeStyle:=xlVertical
[Code] .....
But I am stuck because there isn't any error and nothing happens.

Here's how my daily report is currently set up:
ExternalInternalDifferences
123000123000
234564234564
345456345456
456567378987
565456456567
654547524564
788879565456
865478654547
745654
788879
865478
The External column contains data provided by an external vendor. The Internal column contains data compiled internally. The data in the Internal column will always contain data duplicate to the External column, but will also contain unique data not present in the External column. I would normally cut out the data contained in Internal column that is not duplicated in the External column, and paste it into the Differences column, and move the remaining cells in the Internal column up. The result would be the External column data and Internal column data would align by row, and the data unique to the Internal column is segregated to the Differences column, like so:
ExternalInternalDifferences
123000123000378987
234564234564524564
345456345456745654
456567456567
565456565456
654547654547
788879788879
865478865478
While not a difficult task for 8 rows of data, the actual daily report contains over 1000 rows, on average. I would like to set up a template workbook, where I can simply open the template workbook, paste the data into both the External and Internal columns, then have the values that are unique to the Internal column extracted from the Internal column and inserted into the Differences column.
The end product would be used daily, with differing amounts of data (from 100 rows to 10,000 rows).

This problem has come up fairly frequently lately, and I'm not sure how to fix it, or if this is by design...but in Excel 2003 I can't seem to do a "Find and Replace" based on the value of a cell. I can do a find, based on cell value, but the moment I change to the replace tab, the "values" and "comments" are missing from the "look in" dropdown.
I've only noticed this when I'm trying to replace on a filtered list, so I'm not sure if that is part of the issue.
Perhaps an alternative way of arriving at the same goal. Basically I have a worksheet with a number of filtered columns. They are filtered just right, using custom filtering, and so I do not want to undo the filters. In some columns I have formulas that are returning #VALUE! errors. I'd like to replace all of these cells with NA.

I have 2 Excel files that have 2 columns in each.
Product# and Price.
The Product#'s in the 1st sheet are in correct order and have outdated prices.
In the 2nd file the Product#'s are same but they cannot be sorted the same way as the 1st file. So I cannot just copy the column of updated prices from 2st one and paste it into the 1st.
So, my best bet would be to run a script or something that will get a Product# from 2nd file and find it in 1st, if it matches then copy the new price to the 1st file.

I've searched the board for something close to reverse-engineer but no luck. I'm looking for a macro that will:
Examine values in Sheet 1, column B
Compare them to values in Sheet 2, column A then...
wherever there's a match copy the the corresponding cell contents of Sheet 2, column B into the corresponding cell of Sheet 1, column A
What I'm trying to do is append the description of a 4-letter code (from a reference Sheet 2) beside where that code appears in Sheet 1.
There won't be a row-to-row correspondence in the match, i.e ABCD might be in (Sheet 1)B45 and (Sheet 2)A920...

I have values in row A and I have values in row C. I want to create a loop to look up xxx and replace it with the values consecutively in row C. Look at example for a better Idea. I found a way to find and replace, but I not sure how to use it with qoutes. I was thinking maybe I dont even need row A and just supply a list and excel could have the chunk of data in the code itself.

Basically I have two sets of data. One will be new each week. I'd like to use the non-changing data as a base to compare new data to. The formula would need to match multiple values, including a 'time between', and then return whether a minimum rate has been met.

I'm trying to do is compare 4 columns on 2 sheets. I would like to go down in column "E" on sheet1 and find the exact one on column "A" on sheet2. Once these are equal I would compare F, G, H, on sheet1 with B, C, D on sheet2. If the these three columns are not the same I would like to copy from sheet2 B, C, D from sheet2 to F, G, H.
The problem I have is none of the rows of information will be in sequential order as well as we may not have a match. What I'm saying is row1 on sheet1 could be row1000 on sheet2. Attached is a small example. in the example rows 6, 11, 12, 16 and 19 would be the only changes on sheet1. My example does have the rows in sequential but that would almost never be the case for me....
