Compare Excel worksheets(repost)

I need a Excel macro that will compare 2 worksheets.? The results of the comparison will be displayed on a third worksheet.? I've downloaded some? vb source code that works almost to my specifications.? It should serve as a good starting point. The macro should be able to compare two worksheets with several thousand rows each. ## Deliverables This code will compare 2 Excel worksheets and place the differences on a third worksheets. *Sub CompareWorksheets(ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet) Dim r As Long, c As Integer Dim lr1 As Long, lr2 As Long, lc1 As Integer, lc2 As Integer Dim maxR As Long, maxC As Integer, cf1 As String, cf2 As String Dim rptWB As Workbook, DiffCount As Long ? ? ?
