Compare The Two Lists And Then Delete The Cleared Checks Off The Original List
Mar 18, 2008
I am trying to create a way to easily maintain a list of outstanding checks. I am able to import cleared checks into the spread sheet but cannot find a way to compare the two lists and then delete the cleared checks off the original list.
Need to find a column of numbers from one worksheet and delete them from another.
Example To be deleted is below: 83221 83223 83232 83233 83236 to be deleted from is below: 83221 83223 83226 83227 83228 83229 83230 83232 83233 83234 83235 83236
Another issues is that the worksheet that needs to have the numbers deleted from has 3 columns total so the whole row would need deleting, or if its easier I could replace the numbers with 0 and then sort and delete.
I am writing a macro that copies a pdf from a temporary directory to a permanent directory. After the copy is complete, I want to delete the original file. Looking in Visual Basic Help, it appears that I need to create a FileSystemObject, but I have no idea what that means or how to do it. sDirectory is a string variable of the path of the file and sBatch is a string variable of the name of file. This isn't working.
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") sDeleteFile = (sDirectory & sBatch)
Set a = fs.CreateTextFile(sDeleteFile, True) a.DeleteFile.sDeleteFile
My worksheet that will have duplicate data inserted into it. Once inserted I need to delete the new duplicate row and the row it duplicated. The attachment is a copy of what the data looks like with the first tab showing what it will look like with inserted data and the second tab is what I want it to look like at the end. I will not need the deleted data again so it does not need to be on a new sheet, that is just for an example. The name of the tabs will also be different so I want to be able to run it on any worksheet. This is the code I am using to find and delete the duplicate but I can't get it to delete the original. I used "First, MI, Last, and DOB" because those are the ones that won't be duplicated where others will. This is a list of about 15,000 entries. There should never be an incident where there is triplicate data but I can't say for sure.
I don't believe this is possible but I've been wrong before.. Is it at all possible to Kill the current workbook using VBA? I " saved as" in another location and do not wish to keep the current workbook.
I was wondering if it is possible to have a macro running that will automatically save a .csv file to specific location and close the file. I would like to have the macro running so that as the files are opened they will be automatically saved to this location.
i would like to be able to move files from one folder to another then delete the original files. I dont think im passsing the variables to the functions corectly.
I have a large worksheet with over 8,000 rows and about 5 columns. In several instances, I have several rows that are all exactly the same. It could be 2, 3, 4 or even more rows that are duplicate to one another.
I would like a macro that deletes ALL rows that are duplicates, including the original.
For example, let's say, rows 3, 4 & 5 are all exactly the same, I don't want to just delete rows 4 & 5, I want to delete row 3 as well!
I have two separate lists, one in Column A and the other in Column B. Both lists are roughly 2,000 rows long. For the most part, the two lists are identical, but not quite.
I'm trying to determine what data is present in Column A that is absent from Column B, and vice versa. That's easy enough to do with COUNTIF (at least that's what I've tried), but to complicate matters, duplicate entries appear in both column A and column B.
For example, in column A, the word "Electric" appears 13 times...but in column B, it only appears 8. I need to know these differences in a quick and easily readable way (remember, the spreadsheet is roughly 2,000 rows).
Every Monday, our database sends me a list in excel, with a snapshot of our inventory.
Here is (simplified) how it looks like
part#, desc, color, units 001 Camry Black 13 003 Toyota Green 2 009 Honda Yellow 17
and so on for about 8k rows.
Every Monday, the list is different. we sold some items, so the "units" in stock are less, we run out of some items, so that part# is not in the list, we acquired some new items, with a different part#, and new amount of units, some part#s have more units in stock.
I need to send to our boss, a spreadsheet with a list of all part#s in stock every Monday, and the last 4 weeks, how many we sold of each in the last 7 days, so we can try to get rid of inventory that is getting obsolete.
It would be easy to do, if not for the fact of the "new" items that come in, and the items that we run out of, and are not in the list anymore. With 8k items, to to the corrections by hand, it gets old very quickly
I need to search a column of numbers in Excel (A) and compare it to another column (B). I need to find all of the numbers that apprear in column A but not in column B. Can this be done?
how to compare the value in one cell on sheet "Block #1" to a list of values on sheet "Data". Specifically I want to be able to look at the value in a cell (which will be a date) and then compare it to a list of company holidays on another sheet in the workbook and if the date is a company holiday it will display the word "Holiday" in another cell I specify on "Block #1" I am doing this to automate generation of a calendar which will have 13 worksheets one for each of 13 4-week blocks. I can get the calendars generated, but can't seem to be able to get it to compare the values of each date to the list of holidays.
I have a list of two rows of over 20,000 items. I would like to know what data has been added to the second row from the first row and what has been removed.
I am currently trying to work out what the best way would be to search between two sheets and find out where the differences are. IO have sheet 1 and 2 which both have account numbers and details on. I searching off the first column on both sheets and trying to identify which records exist on sheet 1 but not on sheet 2. The code I have so far is
Sub check() data_sheet = "Sheet1" target_sheet = "sheet2" rowcn = 2 Do If Sheets(data_sheet). Cells(rowcn, 1) <> Sheets(target_sheet).Cells(rowcn, 1) Then Rows(rowcn).Select Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 3 End If rowcn = rowcn + 1 Loop While Sheets(data_sheet).Cells(rowcn, 1) > 0 End Sub
This currently works 50%. Only problem is that this code is not independant to each list, it simply looks at the same cell reference on both sheets and check whether the value is there. It doesnt actually go down the whole list and checks whether it is there.
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.
The problem is when I highlight a row with some color the original color of the row is gone, so I tried this code, and again, it's removing the original format and color for the row This is the code from McGimpsey & Associates : Excel : Highlight row with background colors
Code: PrivateSub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range) Const cnNUMCOLS AsLong=256 Const cnHIGHLIGHTCOLOR AsLong=36'default lt. yellow Static rOld As Range Static nColorIndices(1To cnNUMCOLS)AsLong Dim i AsLong IfNot rOld IsNothingThen'Restore color indices
[code].....
How can I retain the range's historical color so that when I deselect the row it reverts properly?
is there a formula I could use to compare two similar lists to determine what is missing, for example an old list of 200 lines and another of 275 lines, with a first column containing unique ID code.
I have two spreadsheets full of products one of new products and the other of old products. I want to filter out the old ones that are discontinued but keep the ones that are still there. The old list has data I want to preserve for the new listings that would be duplicates from the old ones. I want to delete the new listings that already exist in the old list. I'm not sure exactly how to do it. I tried to delete dups based on product id or name but I'm afraid it's deleting entries I want to keep. Both lists contain over 5000 products each. I need to compare two lists and filter out the old products then work on removing the dupes.
In list 1 the non-matching address is a@spam.com. namely it is not common to both lists. I want to automatically go through the lists and output firstly a new list of the non-matches from column 1 and also a new list of the non-common items from list two.
So in this case the result would be that somewhere there is a new list from list 1 that has "a@spam.com" and secondly there is a new list from list 2 that has "abcdef@spam.com."
Obvioulsy the real list is more complicated and longer but the principle will be the same.
I have searched some of the other forums but have not found anything specifically related to what I'm trying to do.. An example is attached. Basically just want to compare data between two different lists and then in two additional columns (Differences & Similarities) display that corresponding data.
The Master list: Sheet1, Column C has unique numbers, i.e, 0608-211-1093-2.
(can have thousands of entries)
The Comparison list: Sheet2, Column C will have duplicates of some of Sheet1, Column C numbers.
(Sheet2, Column C will have the numbers but other columns will have different data than Sheet1 and may have a few hundred entries or less)
I need a macro that will that will compare the two sheets for duplicates based on Column C and then write the entire row of Sheet1 with the duplicate number to a new Sheet3.
In Excel 2003 I am trying to compare two lists of names on the same spreadsheet to determine which names are different between the two columns of names. What is the easiest way to do that?
I am trying to create code for a Macro that will compare items in two seperate lists in a spreadsheet, and eliminate all entries that do not appear in both lists.
I have a CSV spreadsheet full of data: many rows and many columns. I want to sort based on values in some column. Then, I want to divide my large worksheet into smaller worksheets based on these sorted column values. For instance, if column 4 was 20,000 items long and contained 6 unique values I would want to create 6 smaller spreadsheets. Each spreadsheet would still have a column 4. Now, however, all the column 4 values would be the same for a particular spreadsheet. It would be nice to have a pop-up window query me for which column to use to divide the data with, instead of hardcoding a value in (like 4).
I am trying to crank this CSV file through MATLAB and it is just too big. My PC has 1GB memory and it still craps out. I am guessing that a dozen or so smaller files will be easier for MATLAB to digest. Any help is appreciated!
For the record, I am doing the following to sort a column, then copy it to a scratch worksheet and then determine all the unique values. I have hardcoded in column lengths and would really like to know how to make these variable expressions:
