    Generate a list of mismatches between two excel docs

    I have two excel docs
    Both have a column for employee IDs
    There is a column for a unit tagged against each employee ID
    I want to generate a list of all the mismatches in unit tagged between the two sheets with columns for the units which they are tagged to in doc 1 and units which they are tagged to in doc 2.

    Please guide me! Stuck with this at work

    It is difficult to offer a solution if there is no data to work with.

    Is the format ...

    Employee ID Unit
    1234567 ABC
    9876544 XYZ

    Output where? Sheet1 or Sheet2 or separate sheet?

    Does this meet you need?

    Assumes employees lists same on all sheets and checks Units in Sheet1 vs Unit in Sheet2; Matches are blank

    =IF(VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$B$27,2,0)<>VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet2!$A$2:$B$27,2,0),VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$B$27,2,0) &" / " &VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet2!$A$2:$B$27,2,0),"")
