    Figuring out which numbers don't exist in list

    Hi,

    In the attached worksheet, how do I figure out which numbers have not been matched yet based on the min and max values?

    Thanks

    I've attached a file with a formula that returns true if a given number is in the list, false otherwise. Not sure if this is what you are looking for, though. The formula is "=IFERROR(MATCH(G1, $A$2:$A$22, 0), -1)>0", where $A$2:$A$22 is the list, and G1 holds the value to be checked.

    I have a column, let's call it X which has 1 number per row from 1 to 12576.

    I also have a column Y which has the numbers as per the attached spreadsheet, which are within the range of 1-12576 but miss about 500 numbers.

    What I want is for Excel to delete all rows in which the number matches, so it leaves only the rows which have unmatched numbers.

    Figured out how to do it myself...VLOOKUP, sort, delete.
