Please find the file Hi all,
I have a task that I can achieve up to one point using vlookup but afterwards I need to manually add rows or columns to update the data with a new set of data. It is understood the from the first set nothing should be deleted. Even if one row is empty from the first set is not present in the second set of data, it should remain as an empty data row (but still with its identifier). For example: 1st set col1 col2 col5 col6 A B C F 2nd set col1 col2 col6 col7 A B D F E should result in col1 col2 col5 col6 col7 A B C D E F In the result, C is an empty row as it's not in the second set but must still be present with the letter C but without any data Col5 will be empty as well as it's only present in the first set. Please find a workbook with the first set of data in one sheet, the second set in another and the expected result from it.
