comparing data without a unique identifier

I've also posted this message under Excel Programming.

I am attempting to compare 2 Excel worksheets (one from another agency) and
there is no unique identifier. Each has a specific grant number; one may be
OH W-13-L-1, the other W13L1. In addition, the vendor name, although
similar, is not usually exactly the same. such as Hunter, J vs. Hunter
Estate.

I receive the other agency's worksheet via excel and download mine from
Access.

I could use either program to compare, if I knew what to do! Any suggestions?

Thanks!
