Hello, with the help of people on the site, I created a word document that allows me to reconcil a listing of documents delivered to me using a reconcil file from my vendor and inventory document that is created from a script that I wrote.
With that being said the spreadsheet works fine to compare one cell from another but if I have files that are missing from the list I can't which files are missing. I've attached my spreadsheet showing what I am talking about.
Essentially anything with a False does not match while anything that is true does match. I sort A-Z but when I am missing files names it gives the impression that I am missing files that may not be missing
Overall I would see if I can do a compare to see if what is missing and what is not missing.
You are not missing any files.
All file names in column A has a match in column B.
I have added this formula to column D
=MATCH(RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-37),B:B,0)
The formula looks in column B to see if the file name in column A can be found in column B.
There is a number in all cells in column D which means that all files have a match.
The number shows the row where the match is.
For the first False in row 165, the file name is in row 172. Final-Reconsoliation---Shipment-4---.xls

I use a similar formula to find if the values in Column B exists in Column A by using formula:
All file names in column A has a match in column B.
I have added this formula to column D
=MATCH(RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-37
The formula looks in column B to see if the file name in column A can be found in column B.
There is a number in all cells in column D which means that all files have a match.
The number shows the row where the match is.
For the first False in row 165, the file name is in row 172.
