    Re: Compare 2 column list across 2 sheets


    Gerry,

    If I'm understanding correctly, you're trying to compare two columns of
    data on one sheet with two columns of data on a separate sheet and
    having Excel return "Entered" when Sheet 2 columns match Sheet 1
    columns. If that's the case, try this formula in Sheet2!C2 and drag it
    down:

    =IF(Sheet1!A2&Sheet1!B2=Sheet2!A2&Sheet2!B2,"Entered","")

    Compare 2 column list across 2 sheets

    I cannot get this formula to work:
    In E2 Sheet2 I have:
    =IF(COUNTIF($A$2:$B$721,Sheet1!A2:B721)+COUNTIF($E$1:E1,Sheet1!A2:B721)=0,"Entered","")

    On Sheet2 I'd like to check for data from Sheet1 and place "entered" in
    column E.
    This formula gives me "entered" all the way down. Sheet2 has data in it that
    is exact from Sheet1 plus new data.

    Can someone please advise?

    TIA
