Compare Multiple Datatables

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by garyf2104 9

Hi,

 

I have three datatables with similar data.

(Unfortunately in my example the data was exactly the same hence the terrible job painting data in). Using the first table, I want to compare it with the other tables. If the row is different from the same rrow in table 2 and table 3, then I'll do something with it. In the case above, the only which would be marked is the round 1 data, because in that row it has 10-9 instead of 9-10.

 

I'm just having trouble figuring out how to compare them to one another. 

 

Thanks,

GF

    What‘s about the idea to create a list out of the data tables ( there exists a action in Power automate desktop) and compare the lists?

    If you are sure that you want to compare the same row of all the three datatables, then you can loop through any 1 datatable, then using IF condition along with AND compare the value 1 of datatable 1 AND value 1 of datatable 2 AND value 1 of datatable 3. Likewise for the other columns too.

    If the datatables are large of course it is going to take time.

    Also look out for some alternatives like writing all 3 datatables to excel and then adding a formula in a helper column that will compare the values of that row and give the output as MATCH or MISMATCH.
