Compare Worksheets & Highlight 1 By Criteria
Feb 18, 2008
I have read other threads dealing with this issue, but none seem to help me! I have a workbook with two worksheets, both with the same number of rows in them. I want each cell in worksheet1 to be compared to the cell in the same row and column in worksheet2, and if the worksheet1 cell is greater in value then the cell should turn red. I have tried the previously mentioned tactic of selecting the whole column in worksheet2, assigning it a name, selecting the column in worksheet1, and applying conditional formating based on the name. However, the result is always that the whole column in worksheet1 turns red, regardless of whether the cells are greater in value or not.

I want to design a macro that will compare the student's completed worksheet to the model answer worksheet. This will allow the class to work at different paces depending on ability.
For each exercise, the two sheets should look identical; and so, I would like the macro to highlight any different cells in the student sheet in a colour. I would also like cells with identical values, but different formulas to be highlighted - this is why I could not use the solution posted in : "Compare two worksheets and highlight the one sheet's difference from the other one".

I have 2 lists (excel 2010) that I need to compare (they are currently 2 files, but I can combine them into 1 file with 2 worksheets) if it would be better.
The first list is of "All Students" at our college. The second list is those students who live "ON campus". I need a list of those students who live OFF campus.
The common denominator headers in both lists is: A1 Last Name A2 First Name
I would like to keep the "All Students" list as my master as it contains all the data I need such as addresses.
Ideally, I would like to create a macro or lookup or whatever that will take everyone from the "ON" list and remove them from the "ALL" list, leaving me with the data I need.

Here is what i want to do. # I have a workbook say 'Template', which has two columns: ColA -> Names , ColB -> Value, his acts as a template, i.e a budget. # Another workbook 'sample' which has similar ColA(may contain additional rows) and corresponding value in ColB.
Here is what i need::
I need to copy the contents of ColA and ColB of 'sample' wholse ColB valules are greater than ColB values of 'Template' for corresponding ColA values in both, into a new workbook. SO basically, template acts as a budget check for the sample workbook, and if any value in ColB goes above the budget in template, it will show up in the new workbook. I have attached both the workbooks. Basically the red highlighted cells in Sample are the ones i want in a new workbook.

How would you add rows with the same name and then if they are equal in added amount, to highlight them in red?
example:
a b c
xyz x 50 (highlight in red)
zzyy x 50
zzyy z 50
zzyy x 50
xyz z 50 (highlight in red)
zzyy is x = 100 and z = 50 so it would not be highlighted in red.
but xyz is x =50 and z =50 so it is highlighted.

Please refer to attached sheet. i have 2 sets of data. I need to compare the data and highlight.
First compare each cell in column W with each cell column L.
If match is found then compare the corresponding cell in column U with the value in column N.
Example:
W1 matches with L1 and U1 matches with N1 so do not highlight.
W2 matches with L7 and U2 does not match with N7 and hence highlight.
If value is different then highlight the cell in column U.

I have to worksheets I get from two different dbases do the output is slightly different in each. What I need is simple, (I think). Just need to get a VBA that looks from Sheet1 to Sheet2 for a doc number. If it's not on Sheet 2, simply highlight it BLUE on Sheet, AND then looks from Sheet2 to Sheet1, and if it's not on Sheet1, then highlight the entry on Sheet2 GREEN.
I.E.

COL ACOL A

I have two employee rosters, "yesterday" and "today", with same columns heading(First, Last, Location, Status, etc, etc, etc . I want to compare both rosters and highlight the differences on "today's" roster if an employee's information (location, status, etc) changes from yesterday.
Another change could be, an employee may not be on today's roster as he was yesterday and I could have a new employee on today's that wasn't on yesterday's. Is there a way to copy the row/record from yesterdays roster and add him to today's but highlight it so I know that he is gone?

I have a string compare function that compares two strings and return 1 if matches. Each string has multiple words separated by ",", and all these words need to be matched.
This function is done, but I want to add a little feature to it. For each string, if one word cannot be found in the second string, change that word's size to 14, fontstyle to bold.
Function StringCompare(value1 As String, value2 As String) As Integer
''this function compare the words from 2 strings
''each word is seperated by "," and the order of these words does not matter
''return 1 if matches, 0 if not match
Dim v As Variant, u As Variant
Dim i As Integer
Dim answer As Integer, answer1 As Integer, answer2 As Integer
answer1 = 1
answer2 = 1

I receive a daily spreadsheet which contains (amongst other information) a column of postcodes. I'd like to run a macro which compares these postcodes with a list of other postcodes, and then to colour highlight each instance of that post code in the daily spreadhseet.
I have been able to find and modify a macro but that searches for one post code at a time and then adds a comments box to the cell.
Instead of copying that piece of code and editing it for the several hundred post codes I need to "look up" against, I'd like to know how to create a list of post codes in the macro, so that the macro searches the first post code in the lookup list, finds and highlights each cell instance, then moves onto the next post code in the lookup list, until the end of the lookup list. I would like this as the editing of the lookup list would be much easier than editing paragraphs of code.

Here is what I have. 4 Worksheets. The first worksheet is a summary page. I have 350 personnel that are broken down into three different groups. So each group has it's own sheet. Here is what I need to accomplish. Results need to be posted on the summary sheet.
I need to compare cells B2 & D3 for each row on a worksheet and display the number of times they match on a worksheet. For example how many times does EP & EP match on a certain row. I need to compare cells B2 & D3 for each row on a worksheeet and display the number of times they don't match on a worksheet. For example how many times does EP & MP occur. I've attached an example for reference

Here is the scenario. I am running a business and each day I download my orders for the day. The information includes customer names and addresses. The customer name is for example in column E. We will call this "Book1".
I have a second workbook that I use to store bad customer information. i.e. customers that I do not wish to sell to. The information stored here is customer name and address e.g. column A - customer name, column B - 1st line of address etc. This will be "Book2".
I wish to programmatically be able to compare customer names in column E Book1 to the customer names stored in column A Book2. Any matches found should highlight the rows (i.e. orders) in Book1.
I have tried to make this clear as possible. I want to be able to do this as a macro hence programmatically so when I click a button this comparison/highlighting takes place.

I have two cells with values that are strings.
I would like to know of a macro that can compare each two cells(start from E2 and compare with E3)to see if the values are NOT equal.
If they are equal, do nothing and if they are NOT, highlight the value.
Example:
compare E2&E3, E4,E5,E6,E7,.... if for example E2&E3, E4,E5,E6,E7,.... each hat same string, do nothing, but if they were not the same highlight it with red.
This code checks two cells and highlights one cell when there is duplicate, I like the opposite one, but don't know what to change!
Code:
Sub CompareCells() Dim r As Range, cell As Range Range
("E2", Range("E" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Name = ("MyRange") Range("MyRange").Select
' clear all colors from selection Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
' loop through cells and compare Set r = Selection Set r = Selection.Resize(r.Rows.Count + 1)
For Each cell In r If cell.Offset(1, 0).Value cell.Value Then
cell.Offset(1, 0).Interior.ColorIndex = 3 End If Next End Sub

If i have a string of information in 2 workbook and I need to check if the details in column a in workbook 1 has a duplicate entry in column b in workbook 2 and if there is a duplication, then highlight it in both workbook. How can I go about it to create the codes so that I will be able to use it for different workbooks without changing the codes every now & then?
Scenario: -

To verify info from the manual invoice againts the auto invoice (2 different workbook for each vendor)
Need to verify info from Column A in Manual invoice against column B in Auto invoice. If there is a same data in both column, then data to be highlighted.

I am trying to find a way to compare the cells (example: D4:D12 to the same cell range in another workbook. If the value in D4 is less than D4 in workbook 2 highlight it red and if it is greater highlight it green. I also want a loop to go through the specified range. Of course, the scale of the worksheets is much greater.
Another issue I foresee, is that the workbook name that I am comparing to changes every week, so is there a way to handle this change easily?

I have a workbook with two sheets imported from different sources. Sheet 1 is an AdHoc query from an Oracle 10g based program. Sheet 2 (PBIC 8 in my file) is a report generated from a property accountability program. The information from Sheet 2 is manually inputted into the Oracle program that generated Sheet 1.
I would like to have a macro that would compare the cell contents in columns "RegistrationNbr" (column S) and "SerialNbr" (column T) with the cell contents in Sheet 2 (PBIC 8). The match in Sheet 2 could be an identical match or part of a longer string. The matching cells in both sheets should be highlighted.
One thing to be considered is the column names in Sheet 1 will always be the same but the column letter designation may change base on the fields selected in the AdHoc query.
I didn't realize my file was too large and didn't upload.

I have a spreadsheet with two worksheets (sheet 1 and 2). Sheet 1 has all the current employee data on it e.g. employee number, Forename, Surname, Address, Pay rate, etc. Sheet 2 was last month's employee data in the same format. I want to compare the two worksheets on worksheet 3 and highlight any changes or just put the changes on worksheet 3 (this would be better).
The problem is employees might be on different rows on each worksheet and some employees might not be on one spreadsheet due to staff leaving and starting.
Each staff member has a unique employee number to identify them. So I need a formula that matches the employee number and then looks in the cells in sheet 1 and 2 and if different puts the value in sheet 1 into the cell in sheet 3.

I m running compare between two worksheets.
1.1st sheet is my new data.
2.2nd sheet is my old data.
3.3rd sheet is where I want to show the differences.
Im looking to do the following:
1.Compare Column A from the old data (sheet 2) to the new data (sheet 1). If a new value for Column A appears in sheet 1 and is not on sheet 2, then I want the row copied from sheet 1 to sheet 3 and be appended by ADD in Column M.
2.Compare Column A from the new data (sheet 1) to the old data (sheet 2). If an old value for Column A appears in sheet 2 and is not on sheet 1, then I want the row copied from sheet 2 to sheet 3 and be appended by DELETE in Column M.
3.Compare Column A from the old data (sheet 2) to the new data (sheet 1). If the value for Column A is the same but the value for either Column B or Column L is different then I want the row copied from sheet 2 to sheet 3 and be appended by FROM in Column M and I want the row copied from sheet 1 to sheet 3 and be appended by TO in Column M.

Im trying to compare the 4th column in 2 sheets, the "New" sheet and the "Old" sheet.
Any differences should be recorded in a "Test" sheet.
This is the code im using:
Sub Test_Click()
Dim a As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long
Dim last_row As Long
Dim last_rowP As Long
a = 2
last_row = Sheets("Old"). Range("b65536").End(xlUp).Row
last_rowP = Sheets("New").Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Im using a loop that starts at the end of the "New" sheet going through each row in the "Old" sheet. Then moves onto the the second last row in the "New" sheet, etc...
When it finds a difference it enters that row into the "Test" sheet.
