Hi,
I have a problem and I wondered if someon could help.
Basically, My task is to find matching customers from 2 lists. Sounds easy.....the issue is that I have to match by Customer name and the customer names in the list can vary (Ie XYZ Incorporated v XYZ Inc.) So Ive been trying to write a routine iin VBA to do this that can compare the strings for the occurance of 6 matching letters). Ive also0 used the Match function with an index but this only retrieves 250 matches out of 500!!!
Has anybody got any smarter ways of doing this as I dont really want to have to chek each one individually.
Thanks
Mark
