Hello,

I am looking for help in excel, A1-A10 has few names and B1-B20 has some names as well, is it possible that A1-A10 looks into B1-B20 and if it finds the name then the value should come 0 or else the name from B column.

Thank you

not clear. I am rephrasing if the values in a1:a10 is avilable in B1:B20 that b value is 0 other wise no change.
if this is what you want run this macro test

BEFORE DOING THIS SAVE YOUR ORIGINAL FILES SAFELY SOMEWHERE SO THAT IT CAN BE RETREIVED IF THERE IS A MESS UP.

the macro is


Sub test()
Dim r As Range, c As Range, cfind As Range, x
Set r = Range("A1:a10")
For Each c In r
x = c.Value
Set cfind = Range("B1:B20").Cells.Find(what:=x, lookat:=xlWhole)
If Not cfind Is Nothing Then
cfind = 0
End If
Next c
End Sub


if this is not what you require post data sheet and how it should look after running a macro.
