    Creating a 3rd Column of Email Addresses Based on Two Columns

    I have two columns of email addresses....A & B. Column B (250 emails) is a subset of Column A (1,400 emails). How can I create a third column that equals only the email addresses in Column A that are not in Column B?

    Try this Array Formula. Since this is an array formula so you need to confirm it with Ctrl+Shift+Enter instead of just Enter.

    Assuming you emails are in col. A and B starting from row1 i.e. in the range A1:A1400 and B1:B250, then try this...

    do you want them in the same row
    ie

    =IF( COUNTIF(B:B, A1)>0, A1, "" )
    and copy down

    Hi Sktneer - I must be doing something wrong. When I paste your formula in Cell C1, it works. When I copy it all the way down to row 1440, every cell shows a blank value. I'm guessing my mistake has to do with your comment "confirm it with Ctrl+Shift+Enter". Can you explain what you mean by this?

    After pasting the formula in the formula cell, press F2 (Function Key) --> hold down the Ctrl+Shift keys together --> then hit Enter.
    When you confirm a formula as an array formula, you will notice in the formula bar that the formula gets surrounded by the Curly Brackets and if you don't see the curly braces, you may try to re-enter the formula as an array formula by following the steps mentioned above.
    And if you type the formula in the formula bar instead of pasting it, don't press Enter alone but hold down the Ctrl+Shift and then hit Enter.

    Hi etaf - your formula basically gave us the values in Column B. What I need are the values in Column A that are not also in Column B, ideally with no spaces in between. Is that possible?
