    Vlookup - Comparing two lists in different worksheets

    Hi

    I have 2 lists of unique email addresses. Worksheet A, column A contains the
    data before any changes. Worksheet A, Column A contains the data after
    changes (email addresses will only have been removed)

    Can anyone let me know how I can set up a vlookup formula to show in
    Worksheet A which emails are not included in Worksheet B.

    I know this is quite simple to do as I have done it before, but I cant
    rememebr how to do it !!

    Any help appreciated.

    A simple MATCH() function can do it or:

    =IF(MATCH()>0,"Match found"."No match")


    Hope this helps.

    I assume you meant Worksheet B, Column A contains the data after changes, in
    that case a formula like so would work:

    IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,'Worksheet B'!$A$1:$A$300,1,0)),"change made","")

    RE: Vlookup - Comparing two lists in different worksheets

    Hi to both of you that replied, I had a play round with both the formulas you
    sent and couldnt get them to work as matching email addresses on worksheet A
    & Worksheet B werent in the same row on the two worksheets (on worksheet B -
    some email addresses had been removed from Worksheet B as the email owners
    had unsubscribed from my list!)....

    I figured out how to use vlookup by adding the word MATCH into Column B on
    worksheet B and putting the following formula in Column B on Worksheet A...

    =VLOOKUP(A1,B!A:B,2,FALSE)

    Cheers for your help - much appreciated
