Merging new data with old data

Greetings,

Periodically, I get a set of data. I want to add a column with text that
describes said data, but when I get a new batch of data, it will not line up
as the values may have shifted around. How can I refer to my "master" copy"
and add the text into the new data, leaving blanks for data that hasn't been
described yet?

Example: data comes in, C:1= 175 (basically a unique number) - I create D:1
and type "Good"

data comes in, but C:1 is now C:87, but I still want D:87 to say "Good"

Hope that's clear, thanks for any help
 
Sorry, this is actually a newsgroup which you are accessing through a
web based interface. "bump" has no meaning, and you neglected to quote
the original.
 
thank you for the useless reply.

Wasn't useless, you are now aware the use of "bump" is useless. Have a
good day.
