Hi there,

how can i make a condition to copy then insert a column to another workbook,

the only condition is that, if this columnd header exists in the current workbook dont copy it !

EXAMPLE:

workbook1

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Name[/TD]
[TD]Age[/TD]
[TD]City[/TD]
[TD]Email[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Workbook2


[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]

Excel Facts

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
