I've one workbook with 3 different name of worksheet. My question is, I would like to compare the cell at sheet 1 and cell at sheet 2. If the cell in sheet 1(A1=Unique_Identifier) not equal to cell in sheet 2 (A1=Unique_Identifier) then the sheet 3 (A1=Result) will display the value of cell of sheet1.
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
Ok, first of all you need to write the formula into a cell in sheet 3. From this cell type = and click on sheet1. click on the area or cell you want to reference and it should automatically be added to your formula. You then write your compare statement, and then reference sheet2 just like you did sheet1.

I hope this made some sense to you, i just woke up........so could be a little hazy :)

Hi chku55:
Furthe to what KnAsTa said, you can go directly to cell A1 in sheet3 and type the following formula

=IF(SHEET1!A1=SHEET2!A1,"",SHEET1!A1)
