Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.

As Robert Asked you, Which Header you want to Compare.

Idealy, once it matches the script # in sheet 1 to the current months data (sheet 2) and displays all the corresponding data on sheet 1, i would like for it to look for ANY changes in each category (header) when comparing sheet 1 and sheet 3 and highlight it if any category (header) is different..

I thought I would explain what I am trying to do better, and maybe someone can help me with the best way to do it. I want to build a spreadsheet to help us check in medications every month. So each month I get the actual medication, and the pharmacy sends me a list of everything that they sent us in an excel file. Here is what I want to do:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
1. I have a barcode scanner and I will scan the medication barcode to get the number into excel. <o:p></o:p>
2. I would like excel to find the medicine (based on barcode) in the current month’s data and display it next to the scanned medication barcode. (this is done)<o:p></o:p>
3. I would like excel to then compare the current months list of medications to the previous months list of medications (each month we add a medication list). This is the difficult piece because there are several things I want it to check for:<o:p></o:p>
a. Is the medication found on both lists?<o:p></o:p>
b. Is the medication found on the current List (if no highlight)<o:p></o:p>
c. Is the medication on the previous months list and not on the current months list (if no highlight)<o:p></o:p>
d. Is the medication on the current months list but not on my scanned list (if no highlight)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
What is the best way to achieve this?<o:p></o:p>
