    Compare Workbooks

    Hi, I would like to be able to compare 2 workbooks. (Highlight any differences)

    The method to compare would need to be based on the unique values in column A. Then, the column header (row 1) name. So, as a small example, workbook 1 has a sheet that has data:

    Ref #    Date1           Date2           Date 3        text1
    1          01/20/13      03/13/14                        ABC
    2          03/03/15      04/24/16       04/04/04     DEF
    3          06/06/06                         08/08/08     GHI
    [/CODE]
    Workbook 2 Has Data
    Ref # Date1 Date2 Date 3 text1
    3 05/05/05 08/08/08 GHI
    1 01/20/13 03/14/14 05/05/05 GHI
    4 05/05/07 09/09/09 10/10/10 NON
    2 03/03/15 04/24/16 03/04/04 DEF

    [/CODE]

    So, after running macro, on sheet 1

    for ref # 1
    03/13/14 would be highlighted
    the blank cell under date 3 would be highlighted
    ABC Would be highlighted

    for ref # 2
    04/04/04 would be highlighted

    for ref # 3
    06/06/06 would be highlighted
    the blank cell in under column date 2 would be highlighted


    that same logic would apply to workbook 2... but also, ref # 4 would be highlighted

    let me know if any more clarification is needed... i have attached 2 workbooks for comparing.

    Thank you!
