Compare Arrays and Display Diferent Elements

[jjferreira]

Dear All,

I'm trying to create a Function, that I pass 2 arrays or 2 string,

and then i need to compare those 2 arrays and display just the elements that do not match.

Example:
-----------------------------------
Dim Remote(3) As String
Dim strLocal(2) As String


Remote(0) = "Jack"
Remote(1) = "John"
Remote(2) = "Peter"
Remote(3) = "Peter Pan"


strLocal(0) = "Jack"
strLocal(1) = "John"
strLocal(2) = "Peter"

-----------------------------------

The output in the case above would be "Peter Pan" has it is the new elemente.

The ideia is I create 2 arrays, on which contains local files and another remote files, by comparing those two arrays i know exactly what to download.

Your help is appreciated

kind regards

I'm sure a function like that has been written very recently. Search "delete duplicates" or something like that, and modify the code with the poster's permission to suit your needs.

Sastraxi: I know your "with the poster's permission" comment refers to the problem with the new forum rules. That issue (in my opinion at least) has been resolved. If you still have concerns please send me an email and if you want me to I will make sure that the new owners are aware of them.

Actually, Martin, in that case it didn't... I just mean that if you are going to go, use his code, and modify it... well, it sounded good at the time
