Auto Excel Comparison

hamsterboy · 2007-01-03 14:57:49

Does anybody know of any software that can compare two spreadsheets, preferrably in different workbooks in Excel. Need it to find discrepencies, missong lines etc.

Excel can do that for you.

The simplest (and most crude, admittedly) is on a third workbook have something like

=Sheet1!A1=Sheet2!A1

This will give a true if A1, Sheet 1 is the same as A1 in Sheet 2.

There are more glamorous ways of doing it, I just can't think of any right now....
