Re: Compare two files with the same ID
I ask a series of numbered questions and you don't address them all, so I'm left to figure it out on my own.

1. Why are the two cells highlighted?
So anytime something from the update files changes something in the Master File, you want the change highlighted in the master file?

5. Will the update file really have ALL the same # of rows and IDs as the master file? If so, couldn't you just use the update file to replace the master file as is?

6. You call these "Sheets"...but are they actually separate workbooks? If so, what is the actual name of the master workbook and the name of the update file?
