I have one Excel file that contains 2 columns: Words & Definition (3000 rows). I have another Excel file which contains only words not definition (200 rows).

How can I extract only those rows (Words and definition- from 3000) which are there in the 2nd Excel file (200 rows)?

Basically i want to filter those .

In SQL i would write

Select * from table1 where table1.words=table2.words

How do i implement this in excel ?
Please give me the procedure too…

    If it’s only the value from 2 columns you need to copy, I’d use the VLOOKUP() function in the 2nd file to look up and return the matches from the first file. Don’t forget to set the range_lookup parameter to false.

    If you really need to copy the entire row, then a loop in a VBA macro would be a better choice.
