how to compare two excell files ?

[TimR]

I have two address/name excel files. One is usually more up to date/current
than the other. Is there a way to have the most current excel file "read"
the older file and update ( i.e., replace the matching line/record in the
older file with data from the newer file ?

thanks, Tim

Is xls format really required? If you could keep your data in csv,
this would be much easier. You can also convert both files to csv,
merge them with any comparison tool (like my own or free WinMerge),
and convert back to xls.
