Compare Two Sheets With VBA
Nov 20, 2004
We have a software that we use for budgeting, and every now and then, we have to export and validate the data in Excel to be in sync with the system. What I would like to do is after extracting the data into a spreadsheet, compare it with VBA and create a report in a seperate sheet, that shows the differences between sheet1 and sheet2. The data has 11 different dimensions from column A to K and is in the same order both in the master and recon files.

I have found a compare macro which only compares and finds the exact match of the sheets in exact cells
Sheet1(A1) 1 Sheet2(A1) 1
Sheet1(A2) 2 Sheet2(A2) 2
Sheet1(A3) 3 Sheet2(A3) 3
Sheet1(A4) 4 Sheet2(A4) 5
Sheet1(A5) 5 Sheet2(A5) 6
If this was the case then everything as of cell A4 would be marked as an error, even though I have the value in a different cell in the next sheet.

I know,there are "compare sheets" threads everywhere,but i think every thread is different,because we want different comparison and different results
To the point now.What i actually want to do is a "turnout" of difference between two sheets.Both sheets use columns A and B. On column A there is a code and column B the quantity of the code. So obvisously i want to compare those two columns of these two sheets,and paste the results on a different sheet. The difficult part is that the same code of a cell in Column A with its column B must be sorted so i can see the difference...else it would be a mess.

I put the following together. The is that it loops through row A until it gets to the last cell. For each loop it loops down the column to the last row of data looking at the same cell on sheet 2.
But I'm having trouble with the Range(RngCell, Y).select portion. As the active cell can't be a static column letter I need to reference the active column.
Code:
Sub SheetComparison()
Dim rngCell As Range, rngMyRange As Range
Dim lngLastRow As Long
[Code]....

I have two spreadsheets each with "Vendor names" on column A. sheet 1 is my master sheet and sheet 2 is the sheet that has the information i like to carry over to sheet 1 when the conditions are true. Hence when colum A on sheet 1 equals column A on sheet 2 copy the range of cells b-h in sheet2 to match to sheet1.
here is my code i figuere that if i stared with two columns it would be rather simple however i cant even get my own code to work. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. By the way my spreadsheet is 6,000+ lines long
Here is the code
Sub compares()
Dim rng1 As Range
Dim rng2 As Range
Dim RowNo As Long
Set rng1 = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1", Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
Set rng2 = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A1", Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
For Each c In rng1
If Application.WorksheetFunction. CountIf(rng2, c) > 0 Then
RowNo = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(c, rng2)
c.Offset(, 1).Resize(1, 2).Value = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("B" & RowNo, "C" & RowNo).Value
End If
Next c
End Sub

The code below compares values on sheet 4 column A to sheet 3 column A and then colors a cell "Green" (Temporary), later I will place data from sheet 4 into sheet 3.
I dont know why but when it finds data on sheet 4 that is not 100% numeric it errors out.
Run-time error '91'
Object variable or With block variable not set.
The data in sheet 4 column A is primarily numeric, there are and always will be some numeric/alpha strings.
I can change the value of sheet 4 A2 to "123x" from "123" and the code stops as described. Leaving sheet 4 A1 as 100% numeric, which works fine.

I'm not 100% sure how to describe what I need to do but here goes. I have two similar spread sheets. The first contains all the products in a shop with the new prices and new item codes.
The second sheet has all the old item codes old prices and some duplicates and items that do not exist any more. Both spread sheets have lots of column but only 3 that I need to worry about. Item code, Product Name and Price.
What I have tried is using the If command (in the item code column) to search through the Product Names (on the updated sheet) and put the right item code next to the right product (on the old sheet) but it didn't work.

I will like a macro to compare row one to row one on sheet 2 column A. If the number is the same then it will compare from the same row column K from sheet 1 and column m from sheet2. If it is less then copy to sheet4 and highlight in red, if more than highlight in blue and if equal green.

If the record exists in both sheets then compare the value in col. H for both records, if the value is different then copy the entire record to a third sheet.
There are 16,000 rows of data to do comparisons.
I have been thinking about a Vlookup method as one choice, my thought is this going to be slow.
I have read about vba having some comparison choices, vbbinary, vbtext, but I do not have any knowledge of this, so cannot intelligently choose what options to begin w/.

I have 2 sheets that have 15 columns and approximately 200 rows on average, but the number of rows varies from week to week. I need to compare the information on sheet 3 to the information on sheet 1 by row. There are actually 3 worksheets total, but the 2nd worksheet is not involded in this macro. If the 2nd-14th columns are an exact match, I need to have the date from the first column and the notes from the 15th column (the formatting has to be copied too!!!) on the first sheet copied over to the matching row on the third sheet into the 1st and 15th columns, and the 16th-18th rows on the first sheet need to be copied over to the third sheet as well. After all this is done, the row on the first sheet needs to be deleted.
I need it to compare all of the rows this way, and unfortunately, I think it is going to have to loop through every row on the 1st sheet for every row it is comparing from the 3rd sheet.
I know this will take quite a while to compare, but given this takes me a couple hours on average, letting the macro run for 5 or 10 minutes is a vast improvement

I'm trying to cmpare two excel spreadsheets, each one of then have 3 columns with column A being the KEY to lookup and compare records into another spreadsheet. So in my example spreadsheet If u take cell ZVNA!A1 and lookup for values in ZSKU!A* and find a match then comapre the B1 and C1 in respective ZSKU! Column B and C. If there is a record for A1 in ZVNA then comapre it's column B value with column B value of ZSKU, and column C value with column C value of ZSKU. I have not used macro/vba before so if you could tell me formula based solution that will be good or point me how to use macro. I did Vlookup but it did not return me 100% accurate result may be bec my format of column is not accurate.

I am in the process of comparing values between two sheets.
I would like to search on column A on both sheets and check whether there is a corresponding value in the sheets.
If there isnt then I would like to take that record and put it into a new sheet.
My code is as follows
Public rowcn
Sub auto_open()
Dim iCounter As Integer 'counter as integer
data_sheet = "CASES_ANALYS"
data_sheet2 = "A_CASES_"
target_sheet = "Final Report"
Currently I'm just displaying it in a msgbox but would like to paste the specific record into another sheet but not sure how to do this.
So far this code doesnt work

I have 2 sheets that either contain the exactly or close to same data. I have Sheet1 and Sheet2, and I want to highlight ALL cells in Sheet2 that are not the same as the ones in Sheet1. That is, I need to give a cell in Sheet2 a different background color (to highlight) if:
the cell in Sheet2 has a different value than the cell of the same location in Sheet1
the cell in Sheet2 is blank but the cell of the same location in Sheet1 has something in it
the cell in Sheet2 has something but the cell of the same location in Sheet1 has none.
All highlighting needs to be done in Sheet2. The problem with the codes that are already available in this forum seem to have problems when the ranges of cells used in the two sheets are different (out of bounds, etc...)

I am relatively new to VBA macros. I am having two sheets, in one sheet I have a non-contiguous 20 rows range and in the other sheet I have a 20 row contiguous range. I need a macro which will compare data between the two ranges(one to one compare) meaning 1st row of the first range should compare with 1st row of the second range and if it matches then it should populate the adjacent column in the second sheet with true or false accordingly.

This compares cells in every sheet to a master sheet "AllUnits" and deletes all the matched rows on the Master. I modified it slightly to also delete the matched row on the source sheet as well (looking for rows that are not matched on any sheet). This works to a point, but I have to re-run it many times since when the source row is deleted, the code actually skips to the next row. I tried to reset the source variable with

I have two sheets with about 7000 records in each. They both have two columns only. One is the master list. I want both of the files to be compared and then all the duplicate entries to be deleted from both files.
Ultimately I want to have only the entries in the master sheet that are not in the other sheet.

I've attached two separate workbooks that have indentical sheets in each. One workbook is a 2 day later update of the first. I'm trying to develop VBA code that will open both workbooks uses column B (work order #) as the unique identifier for each like sheet (which represent a month) and compares all other columns for that unique indentifier. Then I need to generate 3rd workbook that is identical in format (has a sheet for each month) and content to the two source ones but shows the unique identifier and any changes:
Column A (due date)
Column d (order quantity)
Also,if in the newer workbook(5_12_06) there exist a unique indentifier (work order #) that was not in the older workbook(5_10_06) and the same if there exits a unique indentifier in the older workbook that was removed in the newer workbook.

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....

I have a list of names on 2 separate sheets that I need to modify. If I have a name on sheet1 matches a name on sheet2 I would Like to add a "space" then "(SV1) at the end of the text string on sheet2. I have a list of 1500 and will only have to modify 75-100. Example shows on sheet2 how I would like the desired outcome to be.

I need a macro that will compare two sheets, find the differences and produce a new third sheet called, results. Both sheets to compare will differ in length of values (one may have 10 numbers to compare, and the other could have 50, Ive attached sample data), and thus this calls for a primary and secondary sheet. I would only like the values which appear in the primary and not the secondary sheet to be reported in the new results sheet.
The problem is that the values never match up, but they are always within a +/- 0.5 window of each other. It would be great to compare the two sheets, to produce a list of the values which appear only in the primary sheet and not the secondary. Im trying to get this to link up to a userform, where the user select the primary sheet (A) and the secondary sheet (B), selects the tolerance, and produce the results sheet (see attached).

i have 2 excel sheets and have to compare and search for a combination of cells then highlight color in sheet1
to be more specific
i have data in sheet1 were i need to look for the first 3 fields of sheets1 with the 3 fields of sheet2 and if found look for the value in cell of sheet2 with the column headers of sheet1
and color the cell which is immdetialy below the column header found
for example :

country area code name1 name2 name3 name4
US ny 1 sam dirk ste hita

1. Got 2 lists in 2 sheets, those I want to compare and all the diffrences in all columns, I want to display in the third sheet.
2. The lists are the same structure.
3.Blad1 or Sheet1 is the list that is the latest.
4.Blad2 or Sheet2 is the list from yesterday.
So i want to compare newest with yesterday and all the diffs come up in the third.
So if there is a change in column A to W new planning date or planning status, or a new added row I want these to turn up in blad3 / sheet3. Canīt get my excelfiles to fit the maxupload criteria. Anyone got any idea on how to do this easy? Would like to do it macro wise due to I do couple of macros before this step.

How can I compare two sheets for row differences? Example:
Sheet A:
Dept Last Name Annual Salary Hired Date Current Pay
101 Smith, Mary $50K 1/1/2008 $2000
102 Anderson, Julie $40K 2/1/2008 $1500
Sheet B:
Dept Last Name Annual Salary Hired Date June August
101 Smith, Mary $50K 1/1/2008 $2000
102 Anderson, Julie $40K 2/1/2008 $1500
101 Kelly,Brian $60K 5/1/2008 $2500
Basically, look at the two sheets and add updated current pay to August. If new entry then copy to sheet B and update for August. If new changes, then copy to a new row in sheet B and update for August. I also only want to compare 5 columns in the first row for all rows in Sheet B. What should I do?
