Comparing data values between worksheets *resolved*

[Decosta]

I have a database that has two buttons that imports data from a table to a worksheet in excel. Each button copies different data to different worksheets.

My problem is that I have this data and I need to compare them for non duplicates and output that result in a third worksheet. An example will be given.

Worksheet 1

1
2
3
4
6
7

Worksheet 2

1
2
3
4
5
6

I need to compare worksheet 2 to worksheet 1 so that in worksheet 3 it gives me

5


I'm tried racking my brains on how to do this in excel, but I can't figure it out for the life on me. I know what i need to do but I don't know the right way about it

If cells in Sheet2 is Not Equal to cells in Sheet 1 Then

Ouput result to worksheet3
End If


Any help would be great

Thanks

As fas as your pseudocode, it should look like this:

For i=1 to 10
For j= 1 to 10
If ActiveWorkbook.sheets("Sheet1").Cells(i,j).Value <> ActiveWorkbook.sheets("Sheet2").Cells(i,j).Value  Then
 
ActiveWorkbook.sheets("Sheet3").Cells(i,j).Value = ActiveWorkbook.sheets("Sheet1").Cells(i,j).Value
End If
Next j
Next i

But that does not match your example!
It will put an entry in Sheet3 if Sheet1 does not match Sheet2, an entry is made into the same cell in Sheet3.
In your example Sheet3 would get entries in the row 5 and row 6!

I went back and used Access to compare (used the wizard).. I just hate when you had the answer at the start.. But oh well, live and learn.
