I am very new to using Excel and macro, please be gentle.


I have a spreadsheet of people sent a mail out, with each person identified by a unique number. The column headers are unique number, name, address, postcode.

I have a second sheet of people who responded, containing only their unique identification number.

I want to remove the people in the second sheet from the first sheet, so that I can send a reminder letter.

How would I do this? I'm not asking anyone to write my code, just suggest what tools I could use to do this, so I can learn for myself. I don't want to delete the rows manually and I'm sure it must be possible to automate this, I just don't know how.


Thank you!
 

Excel Facts

Pivot Table Drill Down
Double-click any number in a pivot table to create a new report showing all detail rows that make up that number
Manually is easy with a vlookup formula, filter delete.

To use macro, my script would be
Code:
'Find last row of ID in sheet1


'Find last row of ID in sheet2

'Then someting like this
For each cell2 in Sheet2.range("A1:A" & LastRow2)
          For each cell1 in Sheet1.range("A1:A" & LastRow1)
             if cell1.value=cell2.value then
                delete cell1.entirerow
            End if
          Next cell1
Next cell2
