Search And Compare Cell Values In Different Spreadsheets

Feb 22, 2007

I have two worksheets with products that I need to compare.

Each product has a code and a product name in the following format:
Column A has the product code and column D the product name,for
example:

ColumnA:
AM1BL15X

ColumnD:
AGLO MEL BLANCO 1C 15MM 215X244

Both sheets *should* have the same data in them but there are 4000
products that need to have their description verified.So I need to go
down each row on Sheet1 , extract the product code from
Sheet1.ColumnA and the product name from Sheet1.ColumnD. Then do a
search on Sheet2 for the product code (Sheet2.ColumnA) and verify that
the product description on sheet2 (Sheet2.ColumnD) is the same as in
Sheet1.ColumnD. If it matches,everything is OK. If not there is
something wrong. So I´m thinking that maybe the product codes that
dont have matching descriptions could be entered in to a separate
worksheet so that someone can check it later.

I´ve been reading around and found these code samples from this site
[url]:


Dim rng1 as Range, i as Long
Dim cell as Range
With worksheet("Sheet1")
set rng1 = .Range(.Cells(1,1),.Cells(1,1).End(xldown))
End With

i = 0
for each cell in rng1

if cell.Value worksheets("Sheet2") .Range("A1").Offset(i,0).Value
Then
' do what - they don't match
else
' do what - they match
End if
i = i + 1
Next

I´ve been trying to make some changes but I dont quite know how to get this working to do what I want and I only get errors.

Compare And Match Values In Two Spreadsheets

Mar 27, 2009

I have two spreadsheets SP1 and SP2. I need to match values in column E of SP1 with values in column A of SP2. If I find a match in SP2, I need to find a value starting with 'TC_' from the previous rows and get the corresponding value in column B of SP2 and paste in column F of SP1.

For example, E1 value in SP1 matches with A3 value in SP2. So I need to find the row with value TC_AM01_axs_fhgn and get the corresponding value in column B AM01 and copy it in column F of SP1.

The two example spreadsheets are given below. The values in SP1 sheet has expected result in column F in red.

Search And Compare" Function For A Row That Contains Two Specific Values

Dec 15, 2006

I'm looking for a function (or combination of functions) that will essentially search for a row that contains two specific values (in two different cells), then grabs a value from another cell in the same row to use in a calculation.

I don't know... that probably doesn't make any sense, and maybe there's no way to get it done. If so, it would save me hours. Couldn't see a way to attch an example file to my post, otherwise I could probably describe it a bit clearer.

How To Compare Data Between Two Spreadsheets

Jul 23, 2011

I'm doing an audit where I need to compare data between two spreadsheets that are housed on the same worksheet. The data I'm trying to compare is the ssn#. I'm expecting duplicates, I'm trying to find ssn#'s that do not match up with another. In other words, if one spreadsheet has 92ssn#s, the other has 79, I want to be able to identify those that do not have a matching ssn# from one spreadsheet to the other.

Both spreadsheets have the following columns:

Column A Column B Column C
SSN Last Name First Name

The tab on the bottom of sheet 1 is titled "CX Data", the tab on the bottom of sheet two is titled, "BCBS of AL Data"

in creating a VLOOKUP formula that will meet my needs?

Compare Data Between Two Spreadsheets

Jan 12, 2012

I have two spreadsheets, and wish to compare some of the objects. I have my vba code set up in Sheet1, and my functions in Module1 in one spreadsheet. I successfully open up the second one, then get this error message:

Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications
Run-time error '1004':
Application-defined or object-defined error.

If I comment out the SwitchExcel line, the script works.

Here is my code:

Dim theRow As Integer
Dim theCol As Integer
Dim strVal As String
Dim LastCellRow As Long
Dim LastCellColumn As Long
Dim YesNo As Boolean

[Code] ..........

Module1 code consists of:

Code:
Function LastCellColumnNumber() As Long
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
' Last cell in column
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Dim RowNumber As Long
Set WS = Worksheets("Sheet1")
With WS
RowNumber = 2
If .Cells(RowNumber, .Columns.Count) vbNullString Then
Set LastCell = .Cells(RowNumber, .Columns.Count)

[Code] .......

Compare Two Spreadsheets And Copy From One To The Other

Mar 2, 2010

I have a spread sheet where I need to update columns "H" and "I", the information comes from the host system as an excel download.

Both spreadsheets have the entity id in column "A".
Both spreadsheets are in the same workbook
The tabs are:

CAM Exp
OPEX

What would be nice is a macro that would compare column "A" in both spreadsheets and where a match is found copy the information on the OPEX tab in column "H" and column "I" to the CAM Exp tab in the same columns. (Column "H" and "I")

Compare Or Isolate Differences Between Spreadsheets

Mar 12, 2009

I am a relatively light Excel user. I mainly use it when working with the .dbf files that make-up GIS shapefiles.

My problem at hand: How can I compare/isolate the rows from spreadsheet #1 to #2 to determine which rows are unique to spreadsheet #1?

What I'm doing: I have a spreadsheet of addresses which I joined to our parcels shapefile to select those parcels. I am trying to determine the success rate of my join operation by isolating the rows which weren't joined. This would be determined by highlighting which rows from spreadsheet #1 aren't in #2.

Compare Two Spreadsheets And Return Differences

Mar 17, 2007

I have two spreadsheets that I have to compare three columns in each to each other and find the difference between them. And I'm not sure how to do this.

I have attached a sample file to show what I'm looking at.

Basicly I need to know the differences between each spreadsheet based on zips. Each zip is assigned to a store and group and the "data" spreadsheet is the master. I need to compare the "system" spreadsheet and have it show me what is different based on each zip.

Vba Copy And Compare Data In 2 Spreadsheets

May 4, 2007

I am trying to compare values in column "A" of my PRIMARY spreadsheet with values in column "A" of my SECONDARY spreadsheet. If match in PRIMARY is found in SECONDARY, copy column b and c from SENCONDARY and paste in b and c of PRIMARY. Next, test for next true statement until no other matches in PRIMARY.

Any ideas of how to quickly and efficiently accomplish this task? Actually, I am now copying a spreadsheet from another workbook and pasting the content to another sheet which I am referring to as SECONDARY in the previous paragraph.

Compare Last Names And Dates Of Birth From Two Spreadsheets

Feb 5, 2009

I have several old spreadsheets that contain patient information. Except for names, dates of birth, and dates of surgery there is nothing consistent about them. Not only that, the old spreadsheets were in various stages of compiliation and recompilation when they were abandoned. So now there are multiple duplications of old names added to lists of new names spread across multiple spreadsheets. I have to identify names that are not already in my database and add them.

I have a formula that I found on the internet that I can use to check if a patient’s last name in an old spreadsheet is one that already appears in my main database. In my attached example the formula looks like this:

Compare Two Spreadsheets Altering 2nd One Based On Contents Of The First

Jul 6, 2007

I have a master spreadsheet containing 4 relevant fields, 'Manufacturer', 'Product', 'Version' and 'Type'. This contains all possible variations of 'manufacturer', 'product' and 'version' that can occur in the organisation.
The type field shows how the particular item is going to be processed, either 'automated', 'manual' or 'non'

This is a computer generated spreadsheet, apart from the 'Type' field which we've entered for each one individually, as are the user spreadsheets which dont yet have the 'type' field.

This is a large list of around 7000 items

I then have a multiple spreadsheets (one for each user, totaling around 1200) that has a list of a couple of hundred items that are relevant to the user which contains 'manufacturer', 'product' and 'version'.

i need to sort these out quickly by comparing the sheet to the master spreadsheet so where 'manufacturer', 'product' and 'version' match up with the masters record it automatically removes the the 'non' type of item from the user sheet and placing either 'automated' or 'manual' in a new 'type' filed where appropriate

Search And Compile Multiple Spreadsheets

Jul 6, 2013

The company deals with Machine services, we maintain, service and brake-fix machine problems, the machines are manufactured my ourselves and there are approximately 15 different machines.

We have a Field Service spreadsheet that is filled in by all service engineers for every job they go on, this is filled in with information like:-

Serial Number
Machine Type
Hours Run Time
Reason for Visit
Reported Problem
etc, etc

All the forms are identical so all the fields are identical

Field Service Record Spares 2013 Master Rev4 (2).xlsx (this is the correct file). The forms are then saved on a central server folder and stored in month order.

Is there a way of creating a master excel sheet to gather all the information from all the Field Service spreadsheets which would then allow me to search all sheets by serial number or fault, without me having to copy and paste all the information into the master sheet??

We have 10 service engineers and each fills out 1 sheet per job per week, so a 4 week job will have 4 sheets for 1 engineer. an engineer could go on 5 jobs in 1 week and would therefore fill out 5 sheets. so we could be looking at in excess of 500 Field Service spreadsheet per year.

VBA Compare 2 Cell Values

Mar 14, 2013

I have a spreadsheet and everyday it would change in length.

But I would like a macro that compares the value of each cell in column B against the value in corresponding cell in column D then moves to the next roll - so eg B2 against D2,B3 against D3......B50 against D50 until all rows are compared.

And when it finds a different makes the background colours go red !

I have a bit of a code but I think I need to loop to compare all populated cells !

Aug 20, 2014

I have below code which pin out numbers from IBAN in Column P. Its formulas run by macro. It works fine. But what i really need is that instead of putting the formula in the cell, is that it compare the value from the formula, with the excisting value , in each cell . And it mark the cells where there are a difference with yellow colour I have been thinking how to do this but cant really work it out. If some have a better solution its ok but i need a macro for it.

have a look at below code, which change the cell and correct the error, but which i want just to compare the values.

I have attached a sheet to test with.

Compare 2 Cell Values Then Display Dialog Box

Jan 7, 2009

I would like to have a dialog box "popup" if the value of two cells do NOT equal.

cell C11 has net sales values for the day, including cash, checks, and credit cards. After sub total of these values, I subtract any charges(voids) and get a total(c11). I enter a sales(c12), tax(c13), no tax(C14), misc. amounts(C15 & C16) ,reductions(c21) and put the total in Cell C22 with the formula =Sum(c12:c16)-c21). Because I do not want the formula overwritten, I protect the sheet including the amounts in cell c11 and c22. If they do "Not" match I would like a dialog box to appear so the error can be corrected.

Compare Cell Values Numbers From Text

Jan 22, 2009

I have the following:

cell B2 value = "P1'08"
cell C2 Value = "P11'09"

cell H1 Value = "P4'09"

The value stands for the Periodnumber and a Year so P1'08 stands for period 1 in the year 2008.

In cell H2 I want the following:

If value in cell H1 is the same as B2 or C2 or is in between these periods then the value in H2 should be the value of cell D2. If not the H2 should be empty.

Search Cell Not Finding Values?

Dim i As Long

A few issues with the above code: I have manually checked that there is a sheet with a value in M12 that is found in the H column range, but it doesn't change the value to zero. (this was confirmed with an =IF(M12 = H101,1,0) returning a 1 value.

Secondly, it takes a long time to process not a lot of data. (about 2 minutes to get through 3 sheets of 180 actual rows of data, (rest blank). Is there any way I can speed it up? I will eventually be cranking it up to 30 sheets of data and up to 360 rows. (The 500 was thrown in earlier to make sure it covered everything).

finally, it also lines every cell value in I(end of data):I501with a zero, when there are blanks in other cells, can i get it to not put a zero in,

Search For Values And Update Cell Totals

Jan 26, 2010

it's a search loop which runs the following when the file is opened. I would put it in the workbook_open sub but instead I want to have the sheet update before a main userform appears.

What I need it to do is:

Read each cell in column K from row 6 onwards to the last active row.

If a value is found then store the value (let's say as variable x) and from that cell, add up each value starting in the cell that is two columns to the left (column I) and one row down, onwards going down until a cell = "" is reached in that column (contains nothing). The total values added in column I could be stored as variable y.

Once cell = "" is reached, have x - y to make z and then the total (z)should display in the cell to the very left of the very original cell that contained the value x.

Finally, if x = the value in the cell to the immediate left from where x is (so same row but in column J), have that whole row from column A to L turn green, else have it turn orange:

I then have another sheet within the same workbook with all the data in it with columns headed of Brand', 'MPAN' and 'Tariff'. It has to be an excat match using those three parameters though. I would like the parameters the user selects on the first sheet to be searched and found on the second sheet, with the figures in the cells next to the search result getting fed back into a set cells back on the first page.
