I have two lists. These can be in either table form or array. That is, my
data is in a dataset which I can move to an array if need be. ListA is a
master list and it contains all items. ListB contains the same items but
not necessarily all the items. I need to know which items are missing.
I remember messing with a compare array function but now I can't seem to
find it anywhere. Ideas? I would rather NOT loop through each item in
ListA and check to see if it exists in ListB as the lists are HUGE!
I already have
For each item in ListA
For each item in ListB
If not A=B then record data
Next
Next
This takes about 45 minutes to run.
The compare function I remember using did the following:
ArrayA
1
2
3
4
5
ArrayB
2
3
4
Thus ArrayC
1
5
This would still work however a Dataset level function would work better and
moving the Datasets into arrays would take some time as well.
Thanks for any help or insight!
