RE: Comparing data in columns and delete if not equal

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Hello,
Do I need to replace the STOP with anything else?

My data is set this way.

ColA ColB ColC ColD ColE ColF
5/1/05 1 8 25 0.552 3
5/2/05 2 3 47 0.67 3
5/3/05 3 7 8 0.22 3

So for example, I need to compare column F with Column B and everytime there
is a common number in both columns I need to keep the whole row of data.
Otherwise I have to delete the row if Columns B and F dont match.
Hope it is more clearer now.
Thanks for the help.
