Hi Experts!

Here's my current situation. And I would very much appreciate the help :)

I have 4 different worksheets. Let's call them: Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3, and Sheet4. The first 3 contains data that is delivered daily. Sheet4 is meant to dump the raw and compiled data between the first three. These first three sheets have rows that will contain some sort of duplicate value amongst them. I'm trying to extract values and its rows that do not have duplicates amongst the other sheets into one sheet (Sheet4).

For example (unique values underlined):
Sheet1 Contains:
[TABLE="width: 128"]
<colgroup><col span="2"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: center"]101010
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"] XXXX
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"] 202020
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"] AAAA
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]212121
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"] BBBB
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]414141[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]ABAB
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]616161[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]XOXO
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]606060
[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]JAJA
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Sheet2 Contains:
[TABLE="width: 128"]
<colgroup><col span="2"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]101010[/TD]
[TD]XXXX[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]414141[/TD]
[TD]ABAB[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]616161[/TD]
[TD]XOXO
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]80808
[/TD]
[TD]LOLO[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]909090[/TD]
[TD]RERE
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Sheet3:
[TABLE="width: 128"]
<colgroup><col span="2"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]909090[/TD]
[TD]CICI[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]101010[/TD]
[TD]XXXX[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]212121[/TD]
[TD]BBBB[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]676767
[/TD]
[TD]GGGG
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


The unique values between those three sheets would then be:
[TABLE="width: 128"]
<colgroup><col span="2" width="64"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]202020[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]AAAA[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

[TABLE="width: 128"]
<colgroup><col span="2" width="64"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]606060[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]JAJA
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

[TABLE="width: 128"]
<colgroup><col span="2" width="64"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]80808[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]LOLO[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

[TABLE="width: 128"]
<colgroup><col span="2" width="64"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]676767[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]GGGG
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

The unique values between those three sheets need to be extracted to Sheet4.

I have the VBA code to remove duplicates from one sheet to the next. But I've been having to run the code twice as to make sure I cover all three sheets. However the multiple macros is making my workbook slow. So I'm wondering if there's a faster way I can do this with one code for all sheets. And then have those unique values compiled/copied/pasted into one specific worksheet.
 
I'm glad you posted a copy of the workbook as we would never have gotten a solution without as you were not letting us know key pieces of information such as your reference to the code name of the sheets not what actual tab name the user sees and the ID was in Col. A and Col B. not only Col. A.

In any case this should do the job (it did for me):

Code:
Option Explicit
Sub Macro1()

    Dim xlnCalcMethod As XlCalculation
    Dim wsMySheet As Worksheet
    Dim wsSource As Worksheet
    Dim wsChildSheet1 As Worksheet
    Dim wsChildSheet2 As Worksheet
    Dim wsOutput As Worksheet
    Dim lngLastRow As Long
    Dim lngMyRow As Long
    Dim lngPasteRow As Long
    
    With Application
        xlnCalcMethod = .Calculation
        .Calculation = xlCalculationManual
        .ScreenUpdating = False
    End With
    
    For Each wsMySheet In ThisWorkbook.Sheets
        If wsMySheet.CodeName = "Sheet1" Then 'Code tab name for 'Late In Summary'
            Set wsSource = wsMySheet
        ElseIf wsMySheet.CodeName = "Sheet2" Then 'Code tab name for 'Hub Absence Report'
            Set wsChildSheet1 = wsMySheet
        ElseIf wsMySheet.CodeName = "Sheet6" Then 'Code tab name for 'Time Off Request'
            Set wsChildSheet2 = wsMySheet
        ElseIf wsMySheet.CodeName = "Sheet4" Then 'Code tab name for 'Report'
            Set wsOutput = wsMySheet
        End If
    Next wsMySheet
    
    With wsSource
        lngLastRow = .Range("A:J").Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
        For lngMyRow = 2 To lngLastRow
            If Evaluate("COUNTIF('" & wsChildSheet1.Name & "'!A:A,'" & wsSource.Name & "'!B" & lngMyRow & ")+COUNTIF('" & wsChildSheet2.Name & "'!F:F,'" & wsSource.Name & "'!B" & lngMyRow & ")") >= 1 Then
                On Error Resume Next 'Ignore error if there's no data on the 'wsOutput' sheet
                    lngPasteRow = wsOutput.Range("A:J").Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
                    lngPasteRow = lngPasteRow + 1
                On Error GoTo 0
                .Rows(lngMyRow).EntireRow.Copy Destination:=wsOutput.Rows(lngPasteRow).EntireRow
            End If
        Next lngMyRow
    End With
    
    With Application
        .Calculation = xlnCalcMethod
        .ScreenUpdating = True
    End With

End Sub

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.

Did I ever tell you that you are amazing!!! I just changed the ">=" to just "<" to get the non duplicates over to the "Report" sheet. So much faster than my old codes lol. You rock!:)

NP. Glad we got it sorted in the end. Thanks for the like :)

Last question I swear lol. How do I get the rows to start on Row 2 of the "Report" worksheet because it's showing up on row 1. I can simply do a VBA to insert row and headers but If I can somehow add that to the existing code that would save me from doing a ton more codes lol.

Try this in the appropriate section of my last macro:

Rich (BB code):
On Error Resume Next 'Ignore error if there's no data on the 'wsOutput' sheet
    lngPasteRow = wsOutput.Range("A:J").Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
    If lngPasteRow = 0 Then
        lngPasteRow = 2 'Default row number if there's no data on the 'wsOutput' sheet. Change to suit if necessary.
    Else
        lngPasteRow = lngPasteRow + 1
    End If
On Error GoTo 0

Note I would change change the flag to identify unique entries to this...

Rich (BB code):
If Evaluate("COUNTIF('" & wsChildSheet1.Name & "'!A:A,'" & wsSource.Name & "'!B" & lngMyRow & ")+COUNTIF('" & wsChildSheet2.Name & "'!F:F,'" & wsSource.Name & "'!B" & lngMyRow & ")")  = 0 Then

...as I feel it makes more sense. Having < 1 as you have done will work too.

Thanks,

Robert

Never mind I figured it out lol.

Perfect!!! Worked like a charm. Thanks so much.

Hello Mam,

Has your problem been solved of subjected query, if yes please provide me the solution of the same as i am also seeking its solution since so long,

additionaly is there any formulae to get the desired result instead of using vba code??

Thanks
