hi!

i have two lists below, one is my inventory and one is what i want to match it against:

inventory list
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Ticker[/TD]
[TD]Quantity[/TD]
[TD]Counterparty[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]AAPL[/TD]
[TD]1[/TD]

match to:
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Ticker[/TD]
[TD]Quantity[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]AAPL[/TD]
[TD]3[/TD]

[TD]4[/TD]

[TR]
[TD]NFLX[/TD]
[TD]3[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


IM not sure if its possible to write a code for this but... i would like a way to see the duplicate value on the two lists under the ticker columns, meaning if the inventory list has AAPL and the match list has AAPL then AAPL will end u in the result column BUT it will end up there the exact amount of times that it appears on each list so AAPL is on the first list twice and on the second list 2 times so it comes up twice under matches in results and 3 times under needed in the results. the only criteria that needs to be matches is the tickers but i am having difficulty finding ways to align the quantity and counterparty since the amounts can differ on each list. please let me know if you can help with a code for this or a better way. thank you!!!
