    Unhappy Remove cells from column 1 from a entries in column 2

    Hi,
    I have a list of numbers in column 2 that I wish to remove from column 1 if they exist. I got as far as identifying whether they exist in column 1 by using VLOOKUP and placing a YES in column 3 if it does.

    Any ideas?

    You might want to copy column 2 to another sheet temporarily so you don't delete those too... and then while in any cell of the table, Go to Data|Filter, you should get drop down arrows at top row, filter column 3 for "YES", then select those rows and right-click Delete
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
