    Matching the data from the Master List

    Greetings vba experts

    Not only I am new with VBA - Macro, I also don't know what formula I need to do to have this template to run. So I am hoping if you could actually help me guys.

    Here is the scenario:

    I will be sending a blank excel from the custodian to confirm the physical assets (The master file should be hidden). The custodian will manually input the data (Asset Code: ex FUR1234) on the excel, then when he runs the Macro, the program should lookup on the unique reference (Asset Code) to input the Asset Name.

    The Macro should also match the confirmation on the master file and determine how many are still missing.

    Please see much detailed explanation on the excel file.

    Hoping you could help me with this. ^_^

    Thank you as always

    Question
    do you really need a macro to achieve what you are wanting?
    all the hidden parts can be done prior to handing over to custodian


    see attached formulas for what you are after

    B14 has the unconfirmed total

    Hi humdingaling,

    Thank you for your help, however, from my given example, the answer should be 3 Assets uncorfimed because only

    FUR1111
    FUR3333
    FUR5678

    was confirmed by the custodian. But goodnews is you have given me idea on how to resolve this. I'll try it first. Thank you so much

    Re: Matching the data from the Master List

    sorry misunderstood your question then
    thought the exercise was to show any things missing from "hidden sheet"

    if you wanted to know how many items the custodian entered, instead of countif just use Count formula

    good to know given you ideas to solve yourself
    if you need further assistance please revert
