I have one excel spreed that has sheet1 and sheet2, both has same like this

I would like match SSN on columnB,
if they are match then move all the name, SSN, domain, users to sheet3.
if they are not match then write all the name, SSN, domain, users to sheet4

You can use something like this:
Sheet3 (A2):
=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$D$1142,MATCH(Sheet2!$B2,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$1142,0),COLUMN())),"",INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$D$1142,MATCH(Sheet2!$B2,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$1142,0),COLUMN()))

Sheet4 (A2):
=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$D$1142,MATCH(Sheet2!$B2,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$1142,0),COLUMN())),INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$D$1142,MATCH(Sheet2!$B2,Sheet2!$B$2:$B$1142,0),COLUMN()),"")

Copy to other cells

Lilian,
I'll try to explain:

You have sheet1 with 947 records (the name of this sheet is "Sheet1")
You have sheet2 with 1142 records (the name of this sheet is "Sheet2")
The names have to be Sheet1 and Sheet2 or you will have to change the
formulas.


Insert 2 new Sheets:
The first will have the rows that MATCH and the other NOT MATCH

In the first new sheet, on cell A2 paste this formula:
=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$D$1142,MATCH(Sheet2!$B2,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$1142,0),COLUMN())),"",INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$D$1142,MATCH(Sheet2!$B2,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$1142,0),COLUMN()))

Copy this formula until column D and row 1200



In the second new sheet, on cell A2 paste this formula:
=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$D$1142,MATCH(Sheet2!$B2,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$1142,0),COLUMN())),INDEX(Sheet2!$A$2:$D$1142,MATCH(Sheet2!$B2,Sheet2!$B$2:$B$1142,0),COLUMN()),"")

Copy this formula until column D and row 1200

Rodrigo,

How to copy this formula until column D and row 1200, I hight light the
A2 to D2 and all the way down to 1200 row, and copy and paste, but nothing
happen,
am I doing something wrong?

Copy only A2 and paste to all the others cells (B2, C2, D2, B3, C3, ...,
D1200)


The blank rows in the first new sheet will indicate that that row not match
(this row is in the second sheet)
The blank rows in the second new sheet will indicate that that row match
(this row is in the first sheet)
