Compare Tables And Find Difference

Aug 14, 2008

I have two lists (List A and List B) of hundreds of items that reside in a single worksheet.
Some items may or may not occur in both lists.
Every item in both lists has a value on the range of 1-50.
I am only interested in those items that occur in both lists.
I need to find the difference of the values for each of these items (List A - List B), including negative values.

I have tried many variations of formulas using VLOOKUP with no luck.
I cannot figure out how to accomplish this with a Pivot Table.
I want to make a macro for this.

Here's an example:

List A
W 29
X 11
Y 13
Z 4

List B
V 8
W 10
Y 30
Z 6

Where the results would be:
W = 19
Y = -17
Z = -2

Compare 2 Columns From 2 Tables And Get Difference In Another Column?

Aug 6, 2014

I need to look colB and colC should be equal to colH and colI, IF both cells matched, then copy the EmpNo(ColB or colH) and Counter(colC or colI) get the difference of values in another colomn

If there is any row for Employee or Counter issing from either of tables populate with RED in either of 2 colomns,

for example:at row 17, table 1 has a missing colC, and row 17(table1) = row18(table2), it should populate the row17 for table2, as a reference.

Compare Two Sheets For Difference

Sep 7, 2007

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...)

How To Compare And Get Difference In Character Between 2 Cells

Jul 19, 2014

Suppose we have 2 cells

Cell 1
Cell 2
O/P needed

abc123
abd123
d123

xyz112
xyz113
3

abc911
axz111
xz111

abc119
abc130
30

abc121
abc122
2

The formula would basically need to check each character sequentially in both cells[starting from the left most character] till there is a mismatch and then display the characters that follow in the second cell (including the character with a mismatch) in the output cell.

it basically looks like this:
ABC1234
ABD1239

I want to get D1239 as the result after using a formula.

Is there a way this logic could be extended to 12 characters?

Compare Two Columns And Return Difference

Sep 25, 2013

I have two columns of values and I want to compare them and return differing values. So I named the ranges "A" and "B" so if your in B but not in A I want that value in C.

I started with a vlookup but that doesn't seem appropriate to the way I was using it.

=VLOOKUP(B, A, A, FALSE)

Is there a function better for this.

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

Compare Data In Different Tables

Jan 21, 2008

I need to check data from two tables(A and B). They are supposed to match each other and my job is to check if there's error in it. Each row contains several criteria, and all criteria need to be matched. I need to give a report on the info that

1) contains in table A but not in B
2) contains in table B but not in A
3) contains in A and B but some of these criteria do not match..

I have basic knowledge of VBA. Forget to say, they are in different order. And even after sorted, the name may still unmatch with each other, so can not use formular like "=Sheet1!A1=Sheet2!A1"

Compare Two Tables And Highlight Differences

Jan 30, 2012

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?

Compare Rows Of Two Tables And Put Results In A Third

Feb 21, 2007

I have two tables with "X" and <Blank> data. The tables share the same column headers. I want to compare the rows of each table and if the rows contain an "X" in the same column then it puts an "X" in the third table. I have attached a sample file with my expected results on the third worksheet. I have created named ranges if that helps the formula writing.

Name1 =Sheet1!$A$2:$A$5
Name2 =Sheet2!$A$2:$A$5
Produce =Sheet1!$B$1:$E$1
Group1 =Sheet1!$B$2:$E$5
Group2 =Sheet2!$B$2:$E$5

Sumproduct seems to do the trick if I turn the "X" into "1" and <blank> into "0". If there is a match the value is greater than "1".

=SUMPRODUCT(Sheet1!$B$2:$E$2,Sheet2!$B$2:$E$2)

I prefer to use "X" though if I can. I would like to automate the formula instead of manually adjusting the ranges for every cell.

How To Setup Nested IF Statement To Compare Two Tables

Feb 27, 2012

Desired output is to compare a value in one table to a value in another table based on the same values in associated columns in each table and produce a "True" or "False".

In each worksheet, the information should be similar but I want to compare them.

Worksheet#1 = "ABCD"; Column A = Lot#; Column F = "Defect T"
Worksheet#2 = "EFGH"; Column B = Lot#; Column R = "Defect T"; Column I = "Inspection level"

I want to find the lot # from cell A2 in worksheet "ABCD" in column B of worksheet "EFGH" AND column I in "EFGH" = "1st Inspection". At the same time, I want to compare the cell in F2 in worksheet "ABCD" to the value in column R that correlates to the same row where the lot#s match.

Is it possible to use a nested IF statement to match the cells?

Compare 2 Tables For Exact Row (images Attached For Explanation)

Sep 3, 2013

I'm making a basic excel sheet as a hotel reservation tables. Sometimes we accommodate who do not follow the hotel regulation, so we add them to the black list table, made from (First name, Last name, Phone number). See image below:

Then if we reserve for a new customer, we use this sheet:

Here is my question:

what should i do, to make a raw color turn to red if i have entered a black listed visitor ?

e.g. if i enter "Martin" as a first name, AND "Issa" as Last name, AND "76344909" as a Phone. then the raw will turn to red to indicate that this customer is black listed.

Cell Value Matches Value From Sheet1 - Compare Number From Cell2 And Show Difference?

Apr 26, 2014

Sheet1 is Main Sheet which never will be amended and these numbers will be a source for pulling mathematical functions

See attached :
Sheet1.png

Don't be bothered about cell colors etc. They are for my reference

Sheet2

Will contain same Problem Ticket numbers but different (or same) values with number of 'Linked Incidents'
See screenshot
Sheet2.png

Based on Problem ID 10248
Main sheet shows 92 Linked Incidents
Value on Sheet two brings 93

If A5 Sheet2 value can be found in ColumnA Sheet1, look for a number in ColumnC, same ROW and compare it to C7 in Sheet2 ?

Bring up difference value, which in this case would be one.

Excel 2007 :: Conditional Formatting To Compare Two Pivot Tables

May 27, 2013

it's possible to set up conditional formatting to compare values between two identically-formatted (i.e. same row and column) pivot tables?

I have two pivots from two different sources and I want to be able to visually identify discrepancies between the two. Both have dates as the row labels (same date range) and categories as column labels (some categories may not necessarily be present on both pivots but the format of the labels - i.e., the names of the categories - is consistent where there is overlap)

I've tried doing this with 'traditional' CF but whenever I manipulate the pivots (i.e. by selecting / deselecting an item in a report filter), the movement of the columns trashes the formatting and I have to set it all up again.

Figured, given the structure of the tables is essentially the same, there might be a smarter way of doing it (by referencing the pivot fields in some way)

Find Difference Two Cells Within A Row To Another Row?

I'm trying to find the difference two cells within a row to another row.

I'm using time values i.e 17:07 and 14:53 and in the third cell I'd like to get a result that shows me a plus/minus of the differences.

I know by looking what math to apply to that particular cell. Is there a way to do a formula to get the results no matter if they are plus or minus. without having to change the formula back and for on if i know it'll be increasing or decreasing?
