I am assuming there's a key field in both Excel files and you want a

?Excel is NOT a database, dingledorf!

Wow. Really?

First, you're coming pretty late to this thread.
Second, you're not very inventive if you can't figure out how to make
Excel behave like a database.
Third, you;'ve obviously never peeked under the hood (VBA for Excel),
and most likely, you've never written a single macro for Excel.

Forth, you have bad manners.

Now go away.

ALL his aliases. E-mail me if you're interested. I'll reply next

birthday.
