    Post Compare and identify unique column values from different workbooks

    So let's say I have IPHost Column that lists different IP addresses

    A1 IPHost
    A2 10.20.3.238
    A3 172.16.16.1
    A4 192.15.6.5
    A5 12.10.10.1

    and so on...

    Then I have another workbook that also lists different IP addresses but I wanna find out all the unique values in the second workbook and add it to the spreadsheet above. What's the best way to do it?

    So let's say the second workbook contains:

    A1 IPHost
    A2 10.20.3.238
    A3 172.16.16.1
    A4 142.6.3.22 (unique)
    A5 192.15.6.5
    A6 184.16.3.19 (unique)

    How will I put 142.6.3.22 and 184.16.3.19 into the first workbook using Macros? And the reason why I'm asking is we have over 2,000 IP addresses on each workbook and I'm trying to find the easiest way to do it. Thank you in advance for all your help.

    You can probably do a vlookup to get the matched ones. The ones that are not listed on list 1 will show #N/A. Then do a filter by #N/A then copy of them over to list 1
