Hi,
have the code below but when executed the values are put at the bottom starting at cell "A71" how can make to start at the top starting on cell "A2".


here is the code:

VBA Code:
Sub FIND_DIFFERENCES()
  Dim sh1 As Worksheet, sh2 As Worksheet, sh3 As Worksheet
  Dim C As Range, f As Range, mydiffs As Long
  Dim r1 As Range, r2 As Range, lr As Long
  
  Set sh1 = Sheets("NCL_INVOICES")
  Set sh2 = Sheets("VENDOR_INVOICES")
  Set sh3 = Sheets("DIFFERENCES")
  
  Set r1 = sh1.Range("A2", sh1.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
  Set r2 = sh2.Range("A2", sh2.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
 
  r1.Interior.Color = vbWhite
  r2.Interior.Color = vbWhite
  
  For Each C In r1
    Set f = r2.Find(C, , xlValues, xlWhole)
    If f Is Nothing Then
      C.Interior.Color = vbRed
      mydiffs = mydiffs + 1
      lr = sh3.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
      sh3.Range("A" & lr).Resize(1, 6).Value = C.Resize(1, 6).Value
      sh3.Range("A" & lr).Offset(, 6).Value = sh1.Name
     
      
      
      
    End If
  Next
  For Each C In r2
    Set f = r1.Find(C, , xlValues, xlWhole)
    If f Is Nothing Then
      C.Interior.Color = vbRed
      mydiffs = mydiffs + 1
      lr = sh3.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
      sh3.Range("A" & lr).Resize(1, 6).Value = C.Resize(1, 6).Value
      sh3.Range("A" & lr).Offset(, 6).Value = sh2.Name
      
    End If
  Next
  MsgBox mydiffs & " differences found"
End Sub

thank you
 

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Should it always start in A2 even if there is data already there?

There's no data there, always clear cause is template.

should Always start A2.

If that was the case then your code would start putting values in A2 & not A71.
I would check that those cells are indeed empty.

Is that a structured table or just a normal range?

So you have a table with loads of totally blank rows? Why, it defeats the whole point of a table.

Solution
Yes, that's was the problem converted back to range and it worked.

thank you so much for the input.
