    reconcile two datasets after their comparison

    I have two data sets that i have to reconcile/compare. In the workbook attached these are Data1 and Data2. I have compared them using ID1 (identification number), ID2, Price and Quantity.
    There is often missing information or Prices and/or Quantities that dont match up and im trying to produce a report which summarises these mis-matches.

    Using lookups i've created helper columns with 1s and 0s (where a 1 stands for 'a match found' and a '0' for no match found).
    These identify:
    1) if there are matching ID1's in these data sets.
    2) matching ID2's
    3) matching ID1's + Prices (e.g. which cant happen if there are no matching ID1's and/or no matching Prices)
    4) matching ID2's + Prices
    5) matching ID1's + Qtys
    6) matching ID2's + Qtys
    7) matching ID1's + Prices + Qtys (e.g. which cant happen if there are no matching ID1's and/or Prices and/or Qty's)
    8) matching ID2's + Prices + Qtys

    Ive made a MisMatchReport tab which shows what im trying to do.
    In this report i would like to summarise the rows where the problems are in the data, showing what the differences are between the two datasets.

    You're welcome.

    It filters and deletes the rows that have no differences.
