Hello,
I’d like to know if you can help me with Excel. Here is my problem:
In a table, I have two columns: Column B "full list" where, row by row, 1000 email addresses appear, and Column C "invalid addresses" where, row by row, about 100 addresses appear that all appear once in column B. They are essentially a subset of column B.
I’d like to remove from column B all addresses that are in column C, since they are no longer valid.
Do you know if there is a quick formula to do this, rather than searching for and deleting each value separately?
Thanks in advance for your responses!

Hello
to avoid going to VBA:
in a column or elsewhere:
start at D2 and for the entire height
=IF(COUNTIF($C:$C;B2);"";B2)
you will have in D a list of addresses to keep
copy there, column D
paste special "values" on B (or elsewhere and even possibly on D)
then "sort" or "remove duplicates to compact the gap-filled list" obtained
