Hi
I have 2 tables. The second table is missing some names from the first table. What I want to do, is to find these names that are in table1 but not table2 and bring them to table2 and also bring the other missing columns like Dept, Age, Salary. How can I do that? Thank you very much. Please see tables below

1NameDeptAgeSalary

This works so nice. Thank you so much. Can I ask you this question please:
Why when I do this

=FILTER(A2:D10,COUNTIF(A2:A10,A15:A17)<>1)

It does not work?

Thanks once again.

In the countif formula used by you, you are counting whether cells A15:A17 exist in range A2:A10, out of which since 2 cells already exist, so nothing will return and the 3rd does not exist, so still nothing will return and hence you get "#Value!" error. In the countif formula used by me, as required, I get all the cells which does not exist in range A15:A17.
