I have 3 Databases for three different departments, namely Finance, Services, IT. These 3 databases are housed in the same workbook - Sheet 1(named Finance); Sheet2 (named Services) and Sheet3(named IT).
They each have the identical columns and column headings, but I have to maintain them for each of the departments.
I created an Excel UserForm to enable me to input data onto the first database (i.e. Finance). In the VBA editor, lefthand side, it has the name 'frmFinance', and all the codes are pasted on the righthand window of the 'frmFinance' sheet.
Is there anything I can do to be able to use the same UserForm to enter data onto the other two databases without having to create a new UserForm for each one of them. As indicated above, the three databases have identical columns and headings, and the data entered onto each of them are identical. The only difference is that they are for three different departments and I have to maintain each one of them - albeit in one Workbook.

I have a dataset from Oracle that includes a study patient ID, study visit that a UC sample was collected at, date the sample was collected, and sample type. I also have a dataset from Quest, where the UC samples are sent to for testing, that contains similar information.
I need to reconcile this data, making sure that patient IDs, study visits and collection dates all match up with out using just vlookups and having to check the reverse of each (vlookup Quest into RDC, then vlookup RDC into Quest) and I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out VBA code to get my data from Oracle (orange header) to merge with Quest (blue header) and merge on Subject ID and Visit Name only.
In exhibit C, this is what ideally I would like to see as a result, data points from both are reported, but if Oracle subject id = Quest subject ID and Oracle Visit Name = Quest Visit Name, they are reported in the same row. I can then just run a simple formula to compare the collection dates and also identify discrepancies between visits (example: exhibit C, rows 10 and 11, these two UC samples look like they should reconcile because the collection date is actually the same for both, however either the study site or Quest is reporting the wrong study visit name).

I have a parent spreadsheet with raw data(with errors) and a child spreadsheet without errors. I want to merge the child into parent. (:{). I am thinking of comparing multiple columns from each sheet to ensure maximum accuracy. And when those columns match up we paste the corrected column data from child sheet to parent one. I am using windows 7 and Excel 2010.

=IF(M7="","",IF(K8=J8,K8&$J$3&I8,IF(K8=I8,K8&$J$3&H8,IF(K8=H8,K8&$J$3&G8,IF(K8=G8,K8&$J$3&F8,K8&$J$3&J8)))))
I have tried several options, ISERROR(FIND(.................also EXACT(........ and they all seem to get stuck, after the second expression.
Basically, I have a ROW of Cells, with numbers inside them, like so:-
F8.....G8....H8....I8...J8....K8
27.....33....10.....4....4.....4
And looking from right to left, I am asking this question:-
If K8=J8, then I will have K8 & I8 as my result.
If K8=I8, then I will have K8 & H8 as my result.
If K8=H8, then I will have K8 & G8 as my result.
If K8=G8, then I will have K8 & F8 as my final result, Else its K8&J8 as my FALSE.
(the $J$3 = a comma, for number separation, and further LEN string capture.)
Every time I have made this formula, with other types of Logic, it only ever finds the second tier depth as the result,
and I wonder why, since they are several nested IF statements in line!!
The incomplete Excel sheet is attached : S 1_2 tracker Forum.xlsx
The result of the above formula should be 4,10
But instead I get 4,4

I'm using Excel 2010 on Windows 7.
I have 2 worksheets. One has Employees and the devices they have. Last name, First Name, Device each in their own colulmn. Many have more than 1 device so they have multiple entries on seperate rows.
Another worksheet has Employees and thier location. Last name, First Name, Location. Again, all on seperate columns.
It would look something like this
Sheet1
Lastname
Firstname
Device
Johnson
[Code]...
So I'm tasked with combining them into 1 sheet with last name, first name, device and location. The issues I'm having are:
1) A team member could have multiple devices
2) A last and/or first name can appear many times, so a simple Vlookup against lastname won't work - it has to somehow also compare against both.

I am in the process of comparing the data between 2 different sheets and the data on each sheet contains 2 columns of information. I am trying to find a way to compare one sheet to that same item on the second sheet and see if anything is missing, however the second sheet contains more information between the two columns and the rows are never the same during my comparison. I've tried Match, Lookup, Indirect, and if/then with an And functions and because the rows do not stay the same the data is not accurate. Here is a brief example of what I am working on:
SHEET 1
A B
1 Red Delicious Apple 125 Count Apple
2 Red Delicious Apple 125 Count Fresh Fruit
[Code]....
So in these comparisons, the names in Column A match identically, so if I try to say take the name from sheet 1 and match to that in sheet 2 and if the wording in Column B matches then put a "Yes" value. But you can see on Sheet 2 by the time it gets to rows 14, 15, 16, the Baby Food Chicken has a 3rd item in Column B in comaprison to Sheet 1, so any type of match doesn't work.
I am using Excel 2003.

I have a "form" type spread sheet that I have created where the user can enter different information (like name, company, addresses etc.). I have figured out how to create a drop down list. But what I would like to do is create on a seperate sheet a "data base" of information which will be "copied" into the appropriate cells on the first sheet depending on what the user selects from the drop down list.
The drop down list will list company names, which are stored on the second sheet. However, each company will have other data such as the company address (which will be entered in seperate cells with information like, box, street, town, province, country, code).
Now this is the clincher... The user must be able to add to the data list on sheet two and any new entry must automatically appear on the drop down list on sheet 1, and when selected it's "data" must be transferred to the appropriate cells on sheet one from sheet 2.

I have a connection to an SQL database using microsoft query.
The query definition includes: ORDER BY AAStocktrans.Code But I need a two level sort along the lines of:
ORDER BY AAStocktrans.Code THEN ORDER BY AAStocktrans.Date but obviously that is not correct - cannot use THEN. what I do use to make this work?

I've created several access databases to which I've connected my excel files. However I've either deleted/moved these databases but my connections are still showing in Data -> Existing Connections tabs.
I've tried going to C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice14QUERIES but no such queries exist.
Is there any way to clear my list ?

I have three very large columns that I need to deduplicate and dump back into three separate email campaign databases.
Here's the scenario:
First column: Largest (15,000+ records)
Second column: Medium (10,000+ records)
Third column: Small (7.000 records)
I need to know if the first column contains dupes from the second & third columns. If so, I must delete the DUPES ONLY so I have unique email addresses remaining in column 1. Then I need to know if the second column contains dupes from the first and third column. If so, I must delete the DUPES ONLY so I have unique email addresses remaining in column 2.
Then I need to know if the third column contains dupes from the first and second column. If so, I must delete the DUPES ONLY so I have unique email addresses remaining in column 3. I can't just dump all of them in one column and auto filter on "unique records only" because the three columns MUST remain separate from each other.

I have currently browsed the forums and have came up with a code to compare two columns from two separate excel books and then highlight anything matching with the CompareRange. Here is a few more details about the problem:
- I have two excel sheets. And data like this in each sheet:
(First Sheet) (Second Sheet)
-A B N O
-7 .7 3 .56
-6 .6 8 .45
-5 .5 9 .55
-4 .4 11 .2
-3 .3 8 .22
-2 .2 9 .55
-1 .1 8 .54
As you can see, given this example nothing should be highlighted once the macro is run since nothing from Column A or B from the first sheet matches directly with Column N & O from the second sheet. The problem is that with the macro (module) I have come up with will highlight "3" from Column A and ".2" from Column B, just because they appear in Column N & Column O respectivally. What I want: I only want a number to be highlighted if both the numbers "7" & ".7" are matched in the same row of Column N & Column O on the other spreadsheet. To be a little more precise, I'll give an example. Say I edited the data to be like this.
(First Sheet) (Second Sheet)
A B N O
7 .7 3 .56
8 .45 8 .45
5 .5 9 .55
11 .4 11 .2
3 .3 8 .22
2 .2 9 .55
1 .1 8 .54
With this data, I would want the second row of A & B ("8" & ".45") highlighted, while my error "3" of Column A and ".2" of Column B is not highlighted. Also, I would like it if row 4 of Column A & B ("11" & ".4") is not highlighted at all either, just because in O it is .2 and in B it would be .4 even though the 11's match. Attached is the macro/module I have entered in which is working kind of correctly but producing the mistake. And also, (kind of a lesser problem), both the files with data will have the same header, example would be if Column A & Column N both had "Dogs" as it's title in Row 1 and Column B & O both had "Cats" as it's title in Row 1. Is there anyway the macro can be adjusted so it compares those two columns between the two workbooks without me even having to select or assigning a range?
HTML Code:
Sub Find_Matches()
Dim Column1 As Range
Dim Column2 As Range
[Code]....

I do backups on a daily schedule. Given the spreadsheet called "A" which is a list of all clients and current backup policy as of last week, and the file "B" which is a snapshot list of servers in our supported environment, does someone have a clever way to determine which systems are in "B" that are not in "A"? The clients are listed in column M in spreadsheet A and this column may have multiple client names listed due to a policy that includes multiple clients in the netbackup schedule.

I'm using two workbooks and looking to see if two columns match, then value in the cell should be the corresponding value of that cell.
For example:
I'm using
If(Match(A2,"name of other workbook",0, I want the value in column F of row 2, "not in raw data")
But it keeps saying too many arguments.

I am trying to compare values of an item one year vs the other in excel 2010. So my spreadsheet would look like:
A B C D
028042$500,000.00028042$500,000.00
028349$300,000.00028349$300,000.00
028390$300,000.00028390$300,000.00
028498$100,000.00028498$100,000.00
029477$135,140.00029477$135,140.00
030374$452,865.45030374$452,865.45
030375$452,865.45030375$452,865.45
What I am trying to do is compare A and B vs C and D to see if the cost associated with the number in A is the same as it is in C(which is obvious it is in this example but I have a spreadsheet with thousands of entries). Additionally, the AB value might be anywhere in the CD columns not just in the row next door.

I need to compare the 2 sheets with respect to a unique key. Once the unique key matches , I need to compare 5 other columns of the two excel sheet.
Note : There could be missing rows in either of the excel , so its necessary that we look up 2nd sheet completely to find the unique key.
For Example : In sheet 1 : The unique key is preent in column B and in Sheet 2: The unique key is present in column I. Once we locate the rows in both the sheets with the unque key matching, we would need to comapre , columns A, C, E AND F of the sheet 1 with columns A,B,C AND D of sheet 2.
We need to report if all the data matches when the unique key is same.

I have the following code which compares a string between two sheets. First sheet is 'data', second is 'saw'. I'm trying to copy an array of numbers (energy consumption for each hour of the day) based on machine ID and date (hence the compare string). How to modify it so it will copy the array of 24 number, not just the first number?
I have a few worksheets 'saw', drill, lathe. So I am using ActiveSheet, so I can run the same macro as all data is in the 'data' worksheet.
Sub test_copy()
Dim a, i As Long, txt As String
a = Sheets("data").Range("a1").CurrentRegion.Value
With CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
.CompareMode = 1

So I have this problem in excel with comparing 2 columns.
Basically, I have 2 columns(a &B) that I need to compare with one another and find out the matching data. I am trying to use that matching data to enter in our reports.
Both columns might have duplicate items because I am dealing with premium numbers.
Formula to compare these 2 columns and find the matching data and extract it to a separate column. Keep in mind, i am dealing with almost 20,000 lines of data.

I have a large excel spreadsheet with alpha-numeric data. I want to be able to compare two cells in different row side by side and return the difference in another cell.
e.g. I have in cell B2, "tom, rick, mike, I" and in cell C2, "mike, rick". I need to compare the cell C2 to cell B2 and return the difference in cell D2 which in this case would be the characters " tom, I". They are separated with "," and they can be in different order as you can see in the example.
