    Merge two worksheet into 3rd sheet (modifying a macro)

    Hello,

    i have three worksheets: "List 1", "List 2" and "New ist".I want to merge the first two sheets into third.

    List 1:

    List 2:

    The first four columns A,B,C and D of "New List" are all the same as in "List 1". Now the column E of " New List" contains members of column D from "List 2" but without duplicates.
    Now the members of column D "List 1" should be seached in Column A "List 2" and if they match (member Column D "List 1" = member Column A "List 2") then the corresponding member of column D "List 2" should be put in column E of "New List".

    Jindon had once kindly sent here a code which works very well but it allows duplicates in column E which now i want to be changed. No duplicates should be allowed in Column E "New List".

    New List:

    Here is the code which is supposed to be changed, so that column E has no duplicates:

    Hello Jindon,
    i have an older code of yours here. I really need it to be changed. I will be very thankful, if you could find time to modify it.

    Explinations:

    the macro is supposed to read the members of Column D in "List 1" and compare them with Column A in "List 2". If they match then the corresponding members of D column from "List 2" shoud be copied and pasted into Column E of "new List". There should be no duplicates in column E.

    Your older code which i have posted in this thread works very good. But it allows duplicates in column E which is supposed to be changes. There shoud be no duplicates in E.

    Can you just attach the file before and after ?
    I don't understand what you mean by "duplicate".

    sorry for being unclear. I will try again:

    There are three worksheets "List 1", "List 2" and "New List". The "New List" is the copy of "List 1" but with one more column. The column E.

    The column E in "New List" contains the members of column D from "List 2". But with a criteria:
    "List 1" Member of column D = "List 2" column A ==> copy and paste members of column D from "List 2" into column E of "New List".

    Confusing...

    What do you want as a result out of your 2 worksheets (List 1 & 2) ?
    I need a pure result, not by colored data which I don't understand the meaning.

    Anyway, I must go now for the day.

    Hello Jindon,

    yes i agree its really confusing and tricky. And my way of explaning it, makes it may be more confusing then it really is.

    I give it another try without colors! :-)

    Here is the pure Excel file with "List 1", "List 2" and their resulting worksheet "New List".

    Excel fie



    And here are the screenshots of the worksheets:
    Screenshots


    Short explination:


    IF a member of L1 Col.D = Col.A L2
    then copy and paste Col.D L2 into NL Col.E

    ==>

    NL= L1 + col. E
    where
    E= col. D of L2 (no duplicates)


    Here is your older code, which works very good. Only one thing must be changed: No duplicates should be allowed in Column E

    Hello Jindon,

    thank you very much for the code. Unfortunately it shows error at the very beginning. As i do the debug on the very first line of sub it shows error: "Sub or Funktion not defined"

    no i dont have the old code there. I also controlled the sheet names and data containing columns. Everything seems to be ok. But it still shows error " sub or funktion" not defined.

    I changed it. but it doesnt run
    The odd thing is that by debuging it shows error by first click. Its very strage that it doesnt even go one stept forward and shows " Sub or funktion not defined".
