Hi I need a little help.
I need to compare the value in Sheet1.Col-E with Sheet2.Col-F if they're equal then copy value from Sheet1.Col-A to Sheet2.Col-E.

Thanks for any help

Click the italics "fx" icon to the left of the formula bar to open the Functions Arguments dialog. Help is displayed for each argument.
You havent said whether you want a formula solution or VBA.
Sheet1.ColE is not a valid cell reference, Sheet1!E1 is.

Formulas cant copy data to other cells.
A cell can be the result of a calculation based on another cell.

So

in Sheet2!E1
=IF(Sheet1!E1=Sheet2!F1,Sheet1!E1,"NOT EQUAL")

If you must copy data to other cells then you need VBA of which I'm no expert.
