I need to merge two excel docs. Both have the exact same colomns of
data. But I updated some of the cells in the new document. I need to merge those new cells into the apropriate rows and leave all other data unchanged in the old document. Unfortunatly, there really is no reference in the old or new document that points to the specific row with the cells that needs to be updated. I could specify the rows by number in each doc if need be. Not same number of rows/columns. Not limited to rows or columns - random. Volume is small, rows x columns is 761x9 in the old doc. 37x9 in the new doc. Here is an example of what I did to help us both better understand the issue that needs help. Let's say I'd a worksheet with 100 rows and 10 columns. Lets say the columns are respectivly for last name, first name, street, etc.... and each row is a diferent contact. In each row, some of the data was incorect. Wether it be the name, street, or whatever. Some of the rows had incorect data in random cells. I took, for example sake, 25 random rows, with incorect data somewhere, and put them into a new excel doc. THey were not consecutive rows. I then gave it to someone to update whatever they found to be incorect in whatever cell. I now need to merge the new data back into the old document in it's correct row. Thanks, Sam |
