Is there an efficient method of merging the text from two similar tables? The background:
Both tables are 3 columns, number of rows vary between 35-40. Both are
sorted ascending, by column, i.e. column 1 has entries for A-M, column
2 continues with M-P and column 3 has P-W. There is common text, but there
are also some differences.
The goal is to have both tables combined into one, sorted as described above.
If I try to copy/paste, I can add the selected rows to the existing table, but then sorting does not seem to work as expected.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
TIA,
Debby
