Hello all, unfortunately I can't get XL2BB program to work, so I'll try to describe my issue. It is likely an easy fix but I just can't seem to wrap my head around it.


LineValueLineValueUnique?
FIBER DSL 029860000COAX I/E-KUNDE 028020000X
TASTET AF: 076604000FIBER DSL 029860000X
M104895 076604000TASTET AF: 076604000

Basically, I'm looking at the "Unique?" column. In this column I have used the following function:
=IF(COUNTIF(B:B;E2)>1;"";"X")

I want the column to fill in an X, when it detects a unique value that is not present in the left table. However, the "Fiber DSL" value is clearly visible in the left table, and I don't understand why an X is returned for this one.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
 
I can't really tell anything from that as I can't see where or if 76603700 is in column B. Can you make up a small sample sheet where that circumstance occurs, perhaps by copying the worksheet and deleting most of the rows but keeping the problem, and posting all of it with XL2BB?
I figured it out, seems just my assumptions were wrong, everything is as it should be except my Excel search function seems to be acting up, hence my assumptions... Sorry for the trouble everyone but thanks for bearing over with me :)

Hope you all have a great day!
