About ExcelDemy. I find it more flexible and powerful. If you have two datasets and you want to compare items in one list to the other and fetch the matching data point, you need to use the lookup formulas. For example, in the below list, I want to fetch the market valuation value for column 2. To do this, I need to look up that value in column 1 and then fetch the corresponding market valuation value. In case you get a dataset where there is a minor difference in the names in the two columns, using the above-shown lookup formulas is not going to work.
These lookup formulas need an exact match to give the right result. Suppose you have the data set as shown below. In such a case, you can use a partial lookup by using wildcard characters. When the lookup value is flanked with it on both sides, any value in Column 1 which contains the lookup value in Column 2 would be considered as a match. Need help.
Here is my problem. Trying to fill the rates to the last column based on the ID. What would the formula be to compare the two ID column. It should not check for duplicates within same column as that is not my goal. I want to strictly compare Column A and Column B. I have a question , I have set of values separated by new line in notepad , and I want to highlight those column which matches those set of values.
And I have a column which has entries with some of the entries contains above values. How do I highlight those columns? The example where you highlight matches in both columns where the values are in different positions using the duplicates option unfortunately also highlights duplicates within the same column and does not need to exist at all in the other column.
Can I send the sample file to you? I cannot get any of the above to work accurately when looking for matches in every row across two columns when using dates — I can see matching dates but the formula gives a negative instead of a positive match.
Any help to resolve? I wonder if you have one or can answer my question. I have two sets of two columns of non-matching data 1st set has a set of names and values across date period 1, 2nd set has a set of names and values across date period 2 but whilst some of the names repeat in both data sets there are also names that are unique to set 1 and set 2. I wish to put those names and their corresponding values that are common to both data sets on the same row and then, beneath these common names, list those that are unique to each list.
Is there a route to this? Very resourceful please share your email, I send my problem for help. Microsoft support engineers can help explain the functionality of a particular procedure. However, they will not modify these examples to provide added functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific requirements. To use a Visual Basic macro to compare the data in two columns, use the steps in the following example:. In Excel and later versions of Excel, select the Developer tab, and then select Macros in the Code group.
Note: If you don't see the Developer tab, you may have to turn it on. The duplicate numbers are displayed in column B. The matching numbers will be put next to the first column, as illustrated here:.
