Hi, I have two different dated Excel workbooks showing the same data time-stamped at two different points in time

I'm combining the data by stacking the latest version of the file underneath the previous

Each line has a the data date, a unique ID number, and an Owner (among other information)

All I need to do is to add a column to show me if the Owner in the first dated rows, matches the Owner in the second dated rows. If there's no match, I just need it to show that it changed

I would be so grateful if someone could point me in tthe right direction

Thank you

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
One of these two aught to work for you.
