Checks, Matching and deleting numbers

S

Schwimms

I have two spreadsheets both with check numbers, one of the spreadsheets has
outstanding checks and the other has checks that are clearing. I would like
to be able to do an import function where if the certain check number is on
the clearing list it deletes the one on the checks that are outstanding. Also
there are a bunch of checks not just one.
So I would like to do a function such as check 218, 219, 230, 235 is
clearing and they are also listed on the checks page those numbers would be
replaced by a 1. and if there is a check that is clearing but doesnt appear
to be on the checks page I would get an error.

If anyone has an idea how to do this and can help me, THANK YOU!

Hi,

Try this:

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(sheet1!A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$A$100,1,false)),1,IF(Sheet1!B1=VLOOKUP(sheet1!A1,sheet2!$A$1:$B$100,2,false),2,3)

assumed your cheque#s are in column A and the amounts are in column B in
both sheets and the formula results return the numbers 1, 2 or 3 which:

1 means this cheque# is not in other sheet
2 means this cheque# is completely match with the other sheet
3 means this cheque# is in other sheet but the amount does not match

Thanks,

Thanks Farhad, I think that formula will work great. Just need to put it into
my sheet so that it correctly corresponds to the right sheets and columns.

I have another one for you if you feel up to it.
OK, so I have a spreadsheet containing a list of Treasury bills that are
split into codes. My goal is to be able to punch these bills in there without
having to insert cells in between dates and codes by creating another sheet
that will auto insert the treasury bills into the right code and then into
the right date.
So let me explain the details. On the created sheet there is a bank code
cell, a maturity date cell, a cost cell, and a par value cell. The bank code
is something such as 826-c, nym- 000, or cotton-c...etc. I want to be able to
type into the bank code cell the right code, then into the maturity date
cell, the rest of the information, and then it will correctly take that
information and push it into an unmade row containing all that information.
If that makes sense and you know how to fix it, Great!

-THANKS
