Align the column values with each other so you can easily see what's missing
I have some data on the attached worksheet. This is a side by side comparison of file contents. Column1 is the control, it has everything. The desire is to automate aligning the data so you can easil...

Uh - the control does NOT have all values. You can see in the desired output that columns B, C and D extend further down than column A. Field 2 and Field 3 do not line up.
What exactly do you want?

HansVogelaar sorry for any confusion. Column A is just the control. It doesn't have to line up with the others. The asterisk values could vary but hopefully you can see their relation because the related value is prefixed. The illustration shows the desired outcome.
I'm trying to line up things based on sections and fields. But the data coming in sometimes gives extra info about a field (hence, the single asterisk next to some of the fields).
