Hi Andreas,
Thanks for your suggestion
I know nothing about databases however I just successfully imported an
xls file into LO's Base. I assume the next step is to import the second
xls file to create a second table.
Now for the difficult bit - how do I compare the record associated with
a College Number in one file against the record associated with the same
College number in the second file (should I be saying Table?)? And how
do I display the data that differs in the two entries for the same
College Number?
Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Preston

Your terminology describes a relational database. Deriving lists from
other lists referring to unique records with keys and indices has
always been the most natural thing to do in relational databases.
