Greetings and salutations Mr.Excel folks.
First off, thank you all for being here and willing to help. I've used this forum for a great many other deeds in the past. I am not a VBA wizard, but I know my way around excel a fair bit.
Today I got a fun one that I feel jumps into the land of VBA.
The Scenario:
List 1 contains a list of Mac Addresses in column A and the user name in column B.
List 2 contains a list of ALL the Mac addresses of the computer, separated by a line break and in a single cell in column A. The Serial number of the Mac in column B.
I am finding I am having a very difficult time getting excel to Text to Columns because of the line break, otherwise this would be easy.
My next thought is, is there a way to write a VBA script to search for the Hardware Address in List 1, find that address in List 2 and return the adjacent serial number back to List 1 in column C?
then Loop until it goes through ~4,000 matches?
Figured I would toss this out here and see if any of ya'll wizards have something up your sleeve!
Thanks in advance!
