Hi Folks,
I was given an excel sheet today that contained data that was missing a few fields.
Sheet1
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Column1[/TD]
[TD]Column2
[/TD]
[TD]Column3[/TD]
[TD]Column4[/TD]
[TD]Column5[/TD]
[TD]Column6[/TD]

[TD]Unique Key1[/TD]

Sheet2
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]

Okay so what I've been doing is I just copy and pasted the lists next to each other in the same sheet and used <code>=IF(EXACT(A2, B2), "Match", "") and am now manually going to each one that doesn't match and cutting it to a new sheet and I'll manually fix those later. the problem is I now have 300 that do not match and 3000 lines left to go through.
What I am trying to do is compare Column2 in Sheet1 to Column2 in Sheet2 and if they match I'm wanting to end with the following information;
Example using the first row under the column headers.
</code>[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Unique Key1[/TD]
[TD]Data[/TD]
[TD]Identity[/TD]
[TD]OtherData[/TD]
[TD]Address[/TD]
[TD]City[/TD]
[TD]State[/TD]
[TD]Zip[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
<code>
</code>
I'm trying to get it to compare Column2 from Sheet1 and Sheet2 and if they match then grab the Unique Key1 from Sheet1's matching row and grab Identity, Otherdata, Address, City, State Zip from Sheet1
Basically the Sheet1 was returned to me because it's missing the Identity and OtherData and I need to compare the Column2 against each other and find and return the missing data back to the company.
Any help would be great, I spent almost 5 hours doing this manually and using the Match formula and it just isn't working.
