hi Everyone,

I have two different Excel Workbook i.e. WB1 and WB2. I need to update particular column in WB1 from WB2.

For example:- there are some common columns in both WBs (Sr no and Lifds Date). if I update Lifds date with same Sr No in WB2, then that date should be getting updated automatically in WB1 with same SR No. (like vlookup through).

is anyone can help me out.

heaps thanks in advance

Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
If you only want to update 1 WB from the other 1, a regular vlookup should work for you - have you tried that yet?

vlookup is not manual, once you have it working, it will reference the source file and change every time the source file changes
