Compare 2 Files And Do A Net Send
Sep 18, 2007Here's my first file, a txt file. It's just 1 line:
5 10
Here's my second file. It's an excel file:
Name CIQ ASA
Bob 4 20
Joe 5 10
Bill 6 8
I need something that compare's the first number (5) in File 1 with the first number for each person in File 2. The first line in File 2 is just a heading. If Bob's CIQ is greater than 4, I need to issue a net send that says "Net Send bob Alert! Check the montor" Or if Bob's ASA limit of 20 is higher than the second number in File 1, I need the same message to go out to Bob. Same for Joe and Bill.
This seems like it should be simple but I've struggled with this for over a week.
Compare 2 Files & Append
Aug 15, 2008I am trying to compare 2 excel files (main and monthly) and append the new records in to the main file that will have several more columns than the monthly file. So the Main file will have all the records of previous months, and will be compared against a new monthly file to make sure only new records are added from the monthly file in all the six sheets. The columns are exactly the same in all the sheets. Except for the main file which as mentioned will have several more columns for other details. How can I do this? I have been searching a lot but couldnt find what I exactly was looking for. As an example I have attached 2 files. obviously the real files have much more data. The second part is how to modify the already existing records in the Main file when same record in Monthly file changes. this is later.

Unknown Characters In Compare Files
Aug 18, 2008I have two access databases which export results to two excel files. I am trying to compair the two excel files (generated by access databases) to find the common data in the two files. I am using Vlookup function.
The data looks like this
File 1
Serial No Fault
40293 A
40294 B
File 2
Serial No Solution
40293 Procedure 1
40294 Procedure 2
The result should be
Serial No Fault Solution
40293 A Procedure 1
etc...
But the column serial no in file 1 has some unknown characters like 40293followed by a small square or a vertical line. The datasource for the access file that generates file 1 is actually a lotus notes database. I think thats what causing this. Is there a solution to clear these spurious characters?
The VLookup function works fine if I manually delete those characters.
Compare Data From 3 Workbooks Against 2 Files
Feb 15, 2010For the past several days I have been attempting to write a macro, which in theory would check the values within a one- sheet workbook (we’ll call it run_list.xls) against the values in two different workbooks (we’ll call these production.xls, development.xls). However after several days I am nowhere closer to solving this problem then I was when I started. I’ve tried different scripts and variations of vlookup, but I have been unsuccessful in tailoring what I have found to meet my needs. So I feel it is time to lie down and scream for a medic.
Here’s some background on the workbooks. The sheets in all three workbooks are set up in the same manner. Cell “A1” contains time/ date, cell “A2” contains a lot#, cells “A3:A99” contain positioning data, and cells “B3:B99” contain serial numbers associated with tubes in the specific positions. The only differences between the workbooks are the sheets in production.xls and development.xls are labeled according to their specific lot number.
What I have been trying to do is to take a value from cell "B3"in run_list.xls and find where that value occurs in column B either of workbooks. When that value was found I wanted to copy cell "A2" from its sheet and paste that value in cell "D3" of run_list.xls. I had also wanted to repeat that those steps for every cell in column B containing a serial #. If a serial number was not found I wanted it to report “Not Found”. There are also times when instead of a serial number a phrase “No Trakmate” is listed. In these cases I had intended to skip these lines.
Also, since production.xls, development.xls are updated frequently their names are also updated with new version numbers ie. Production_v10.xls I had intended to allow the user to choose what files to search in but was unable to figure out how to add a second location.
Compare Two Very Large Files - Vlookup Is Not Working?
Jul 24, 2014I'm trying to compare two very large files to find some that are in one AND also in the other. I'm using =VLOOKUP(C2,Parts2!C:D,1,FALSE) and my results are #N/A for all of them. I have formatted both columns as 'General' because there can be letters and numbers in the serial number, I have also tried formatting as text to no avail. I have confirmed no preceding or trailing spaces or other special characters.
I am however, able to locate values in both documents using Ctrl F. I'm totally puzzled because I've always been able to figure out what's causing my Vlookup issues when I have them but this time I'm not able to.

3 - What I need to do is, on the costs' sheet I need to create a sub that in the last column adds me 1 if the date of the cost added is not a date between the starting and ending date of the project that it corresponds.

Compare And Match Values In Two Spreadsheets
Mar 27, 2009I 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.

Dec 16, 2009I have a sheet (name “master”) that I need to compare against data in a table. For each row, I am looking at two columns of information that I need to compare against the data table. The columns are (1) “State of Sale” and (2) “Associate ID”. I need to determine if the associate is allowed to make sales in the state that is identified, which requires looking at the data sheet.
This steps I need to take are as follows:
1 – grab the associate ID and determine if it is in the data sheet. If the ID is not in the sheet, then “No record found”. Else, go to next step
2 – if the ID was found in the data sheet, then the next step is to grab the “State of Sale” and compare against the data table. Go to the row of ID in question, and then go to the column of the State code in question. If there is an “x” in the intersecting cell, then sale is “ok”. If there is not an “x”, then “sales violation”.
Compare Values In Two Cells - Highlight When There Is No Match
Jan 3, 2013I 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
