Hi all,
I am trying to compare two sheets and copy the new data from 1 to another if its not there, this code only seems to copy the first 2 columns.
What do I need to change to include up to column I? Also is there a way to copy them to Compare sheet with a different colour to see what has been added?

VBA Code:
Sub Compare()
   Dim Ary As Variant
   Dim i As Long, j As Long
   
   Ary = Sheets("RECP1").Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Value2
   With Sheets("Compare")
      j = .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
      For i = UBound(Ary) To 2 Step -1
         If .Cells(j, 1).Value = Ary(i, 1) Then
            j = j - 1
         Else
            Rows(j + 1).Insert
            .Cells(j + 1, 1).Resize(, 2).Value = Array(Ary(i, 1), Ary(i, 2))
         End If
      Next i
   End With
End Sub

Thank you
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
I don't have any data to test this with but see if this does what you need:
The code in red are the changes

Rich (BB code):
Sub Compare()
   Dim Ary As Variant
   Dim i As Long, j As Long, zCol As Long
   
   Ary = Sheets("RECP1").Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Value2
   With Sheets("Compare")
      j = .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
      For i = UBound(Ary) To 2 Step -1
         If .Cells(j, 1).Value = Ary(i, 1) Then
            j = j - 1
         Else
            Rows(j + 1).Insert
            For zCol = 1 To Columns("I").Column
                .Cells(j + 1, zCol).Value = Ary(i, zCol)
            Next zCol
            .Range(.Cells(j + 1, "A"), .Cells(j + 1, "I")).Interior.Color = vbYellow
         End If
      Next i
   End With
End Sub

Solution
Alex can that code be modded to do it on 1 sheet...for example insert new rows into L:T and highlight if not in A:I ?
so its easier to see the differences. Thanks

I have logged off for the night but if you are using excel tables give me the table names.

Oops thanks for reminding me.
Your previous response indicated that you were not in fact using tables (I just thought the line colouring indicated you were).

If you are not using tables try the code below.

VBA Code:
Sub Compare()
    Dim Ary As Variant
    Dim i As Long, j As Long, zCol As Long
    Dim shtData As Worksheet
    Dim lrRECP1 As Long, lrComp As Long
    Dim rngRECP1 As Range, rngComp As Range
    
    Set shtData = ActiveSheet
    
    With shtData
        lrRECP1 = .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
        Set rngRECP1 = .Range(.Cells(1, "A"), .Cells(lrRECP1, "I"))
        lrComp = .Range("L" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
        Set rngComp = .Range(.Cells(1, "L"), .Cells(lrComp, "T"))
    End With
    
    Ary = rngRECP1.Value2
    With rngComp
        j = lrComp
        For i = UBound(Ary) To 2 Step -1
            If .Cells(j, 1).Value = Ary(i, 1) Then
                j = j - 1
            Else
                .Rows(j + 1).Insert Shift:=xlDown
                For zCol = 1 To Columns("I").Column
                    .Cells(j + 1, zCol).Value = Ary(i, zCol)
                Next zCol
                .Rows(j + 1).Interior.Color = vbYellow
            End If
        Next i
    End With
End Sub

thanks mate, I might put it in a tab might be easier to sort out. I will try that code.
