    How to compare two string in two different workbooks?

    Hi All,

    How are you doing?

    Guys need your help,I want to compare a string in a different workbook. and find the relevant cell value of that.

    e.x. in one worksheet the value displayed like "DEBIT/ATM CARD TRANSACTION FEE"
    But in another worksheet the value displayed as "018 - Debit/Atm Card Transaction Fee".

    Now I want to compare this string and the value displayed in the column E for this row of workbook 2 should be displayed in workbook 1 in the column D.

    Can anybody help on this?

    Thanks, have a good day !

    Regards,
    Somani
