Dear friends,
I have 2 system generated Excel files that have certain combinations and prices against those combinations.
The 2 Excel worksheets are based in the following format:
Column A - Unique system generated ID, these IDs are different in both the sheets.
Column B - Pricing Parameter
Column C - Pricing Parameter
Column D - Pricing Parameter
Column E - Pricing Parameter
Column F - Pricing Parameter
Column G - Pricing Parameter
Column H - Pricing information (numerical value)
Column I - Pricing information (numerical value)
Column J - Pricing information (numerical value)
Column K - Pricing information (numerical value)
Both Excel files are identical.
Column A has different values in both the files.
There are several records where columns B through G have identical information. However there are several records that are additional in the second Excel file.
Columns H through K have pricing information that are based on the combinations in columns B through G.
The aim is to copy the prices in H to K based on the combinations of B through G from one sheet to another.
Here is an example of the Excel File - BayFiles
The First Sheet has the "source combinations"
The Second sheet has the "destination combinations"
Formats of both sheets are identical.
Columns A has different IDs in both sheets.
Columns B through G have some identical records. however the second sheet with "Destination Combinations" has records that do not exist in the first sheet "Source Combinations"
If a combination exists in Columns B - G in the first sheet and also exists in the second sheet in Columns B - G, the values from in the first sheet that exist in Columns H - K need to be copied to the second sheet in Columns H - K.
If the combinations do not exist in columns B - G, then off course nothing can be done and those values in the second sheet need to be left blank.
How can I do this? Any fuzzy logic? Any macros? I am trying my best to figure out any way to do this intelligently, copy pasting is really slow. Filtering and copy pasting has its own sets of issues and is very error prone. And it seems that some intelligence can solve this because data is identical, however I lack that! I am an amateur in Excel but I am inclined to search, research, learn and share.
Any help to solve this conundrum will be really helpful.
Really looking forward to your answers.
Thanks for your time.
David.
