Best Way to Compare Two Columns on Different Worksheets Using Excel 2007

Hi


I would like to compare two columns of data for organizations that are located on different worksheets within the same workbook. Sheet1, Column A contains the 136 target organization numbers. Sheet2 Column A contains the 284 organizational numbers, of the total population and the data, Column B-ADC, for each organization on that particular row.


The goal is to identify the 136 organizations in Sheet2 and delete the remainder of organizations along with their respective data.


Thank you for taking the time to consider/answer this request.

Helper column with this formula:

=ISNA(MATCH(A2,Sheet1!A:A,0))

Filter/sort this column, delete all the rows that have "true".


Chandoo has also written several articles about comparing lists.
