Compare arrays, find value that doesn't exist.
I have an array with 3 columns and another array with 4 columns. I'm trying to find a formula that will compare the 3 values in a row in the 1st array, compare it to three values in a row in the ...

it worked for me. I've just slightly revised the formula.=INDEX(H2:H4, MATCH(TRUE, MMULT(--(A2:C4<>E2:G4), TRANSPOSE(COLUMN(A2:C4)^0))>0, 0))note: this formula will only return the first mismatched from your arrays. and if you have multiple mismatches, it will need a SMALL function with ROW function as the second argument to the Nth smallest value from your arrays row numbers where there is a mismatch.
formula if multiple mismatches:=IFERROR(INDEX($H$2:$H$4, SMALL(IF(MMULT(--($A$2:$C$4<>$E$2:$G$4), TRANSPOSE(COLUMN($A$2:$C$4)^0))>0, ROW($A$2:$A$4)-ROW($A$2)+1), ROW(A1))), "")after pasting that formula (with Ctrl+Shift+Enter) example in cell B9, then copy that cell and paste it in cell B10 and B11
@ere's my sample book.
So apparently...
INDEX($U$15:$U$114,MATCH($Y$3,$U$15:$U$114,0))=Y3
Works just fine on it's own, but when I incorporate it into your formula it returns #N/A.
Is there anything you can do to solve that?
Thank you.
