    VBA Loop, Find, Copy, Repeat Loop

    Hi everybody, I have a query and hope somebody on here can help me, its regards VBA loops.

    I will try to clearly explain what I am trying to do.

    Currently,

    I import into (sheet1) via some vba a list of all the files found within a folder on my PC.
    All filenames include their file extension ( I am only interested in the pdf files not xls ).
    I then compare (sheet1) against a master database (sheet2) via formulas to highlight any new files.
    I then sort the data in (sheet1) so all the new pdf filenames are at the top or bottom of the list
    then select and copy those filenames into a specific column in (sheet2) where they stay.

    I have to manually delete the file extension at this point in (sheet2) which I would also like to
    automate soon.

    Propose Use.

    As this is a long winded process, I am trying to automate the whole thing but am finding it a little
    hard to resolve.

    So to list in order what I am trying to do is this.

    1. Import folder list into (sheet1) - this is already working
    2. Compare (sheet1) against (sheet2) and list differences - this is already working
    3. VBA to loop down (sheet1) column A, all cells with the word "New" copy the result of (sheet1), column B into (sheet2) column C
    4. Remove the extension part of the filename which was just copied.
    5. Repeat the process until completed.

    I have attached some code I have been trying to work on also an example file.

    Thanks
