    Merging contact info from different spreadsheets to one row.

    I have a spreadsheet with names and phone numbers. I have another spreadsheet with similar- but not the same names and not in the same order- with email addresses.

    I have pasted all info into one spreadsheet and alphabetised it- it looks a little like this now.... (joe bloggs being an example name)

    joe bloggs telephone no
    joe bloggs email

    Is there a way i can easily merge these two rows keeping the name the same? Otherwise it will take FOREVER!!

    Thanks in advance.

    Is there a sample file you can upload?

    To Attach a File:

    1. Click on Go Advanced
    2. In the frame Attach Files you will see the button Manage Attachments
    3. Click the button.
    4. A new window will open titled Manage Attachments - Excel Forum.
    5. Click the Browse... button to locate your file for uploading.
    6. This will open a new window File Upload.
    7. Once you have located the file to upload click the Open button. This window will close.
    8. You are now back in the Manage Attachments - Excel Forum window.
    9. Click the Upload button and wait until the file has uploaded.
    10. Close the window and then click Submit.

    I don't really have a sample file but here is an example.

    Where is the "go advanced" option?

    Go advanced is in the quick reply window next to post quick reply or if you want to edit the post, go to edit post and then go advanced.

    It will be easier to have a sample file so we can test the code. We will save time in replicating the jpg into an excel file.
