how to update this VBA so that it checks the new data columns against old data columns?

I have this code below.

it imports the selected worksheet into Target worksheet called "Maria Hospital"

now the number of columns with data and their order and also header names of the existing data in the target worksheet and the new imported file must match. if any of them do not match. macro should pop a message box stating which column header or order changed, or if new column added.

how can this code be modified, that before clearing the target old data via this line

    If Not IsEmpty(ClearRng) = True Then
        ClearRng.ClearContents    
    End If

Select all Open in new window

The macro should do a cross examination of columns between the existing data and the new data that is to be imported and if column header or order of columns changed, or if new column added to the end of data. it should pop a message box.


thanks.
