I have a macro that loops through and compares two worksheets. I use the match function to check if a record in one exists in the other. Basically what I need to do is figure out a way to set up an if statement to execute one set of code if it exists and another if it does not.

What would be the best way to check for the existence of a record and execute code based on the result?
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
Try like this

Code:
If IsNumeric(Application.Match(Range("A1").Value, Sheets("Sheet2").Columns("A"), 0)) Then
'match found
Else
'no match
End If
