Question

Matching Two Files

Hello

I have two lists of data that i need to match. Sheet 1 includes a list of unique identifiers (email addresses) of customers. Sheet 2 Includes a list of unique identifiers (email addresses) of people who came into our chat room for discussions. I want to find a match between these two lists.

Example:

Sheet 1

Email Address 1

Email Address 2

Email Address 3

Email Address 4

Email Address 5

Email Address 6

Sheet 2

Email Address 9

Email Address 15

Email Address 22

Email Address 3

Email Address 55

Email Address 4

Email Address 5

I would like Excel to spit out a match of these two lists. As you can see, Sheet 2 has 3 matches to Sheet 1. I would like the report to look like this:

Sheet 1                  Match?

Email Address 1       No

Email Address 2       No

Email Address 3       Yes

Email Address 4       Yes

Email Address 5       Yes

Email Address 6       No

Can you help???

Thanks !!

Explanation / Answer

Assume that data starts at Cell A1, then type the following in B1

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$A$7,1,0)),"No","Yes")
