I need help to merge two files. Any help or macro will be highly appreciated. I have two files. file A and file B. Need to update FILE A from File B.
Each file has hundred of rows and about 50 column. If any word or phrase under column "Part" file A matches with any word under column "Part" file b, then copy all the data of matching COLUMN "PART" and corresponding column "NAME" from file B to matching COLUMN "PART" AND corresponding column "NAME" FILE A. See example File A NAME PART 1. power done 2, power done 3, hello, mike, jeans, peter, walsh 2. I. Bergquist, T. Thomas, J. Mathers, C SMITH, JOHNSON, WILLIAMS, JONES, BROWN, 3. Samnatha Place, For Ever, Since Mickeley, Annie, Houser Gregory 4. power done 2, power done 12, hello, mike, jeans, peter, walsh wili File B NAME PART 1. william shakespear, obama nathan calcultor, diagos 2. power done, power done 2, power done 3, mike, jeans, peter, walsh, hello, billo 3. Bergquist Titan, Thomas J SMITH, BROWN1, 4. Samnatha, John, David, Bonnie Mickeley, Annie, Houser Gregory 5. power done, power done 2, power done 2, hello, mike1, jeans1, peter1, walsh wili1 If any word under colum Part from file A matches with any word in column PART file B Copy data from file b to file A in match Colum Part and corresponding Column Name. for example word hello matches from B1 OF FILE A with B2 AND B5 of file B, so copy whole B2 AND B5 from file B to B1 of File A also copy whole A2 AND A5 from file B to A1 of File A Example as follows. There is possibility that matching word contain in more than one row like this example ROW 2 AND ROW 5. Each cell contains words or phrase separated by commas. There are several phrases and words in each rows. Final file NAME PART 1. power done 2, power done 3, hello, mike, jeans, peter, walsh power done, power done 2, power done 3 mike, jeans, peter, walsh, hello, billo power done, power done 2, power done 2, hello1, mike1, jeans1, peter1, walsh wili1 2.
