I have two Lists and I need to be able to Identify differences between them. List 100 comes from a workbook - the other is downloaded form the web.
I need to be able to know for each Person (First name +las tname) at a Branch, the differences in the Role and Date Appointed between the two Lists.
It is possible for a Branch that the Person is on one List but not on the other.
[Once the differences are identified the user will check what is the correct Information and make changes to the lists to get them to match]

I have tried using PQ Merge but couldn't get this to work.

Has anyone got any ideas

Thanks
