Merge Excel Sheets
How to Merge Excel Sheets in 3 steps?
Here’s a quick guide on how to add the “Valid/Invalid” phone number status from your WA-Filter sheet back into your sheet that contains all your customer data.
A Quick Note on Your Privacy
- You might wonder why this data doesn't merge into your original file automatically. It's by design:
- To protect your customers' privacy, your WA-Filter tool is built to only read the "Phone Number" column.
- It cannot read, process, or store any of your other data from the file (like Name, Country, or other personal information). Because our tool never saves your original file, it cannot automatically add the status back to it.
- But we're here to help! This guide provides the simple solution you can use to merge the results yourself.
Steps to Merge Excel Sheets
Step 1: Open Both Sheets Side-by-Side
First, open your sheet (the original Excel file you uploaded with names, numbers, etc.).
Next, open the new WA-Filter sheet (the report you downloaded from our tool).
Arrange them on your screen so you can see both.
Step 2: Copy the Status Column
In the WA-Filter sheet, click the top of the “Result” column (the one that says “Valid” or “Invalid”) to select all the data.
Right-click and choose Copy (or press Ctrl+C).
Step 3: Paste the Status into Your Sheet
Go back to your sheet.
Click on the first empty cell in the column right next to your list of phone numbers (for example, if your numbers are in column B, click cell C1 or C2, depending on if you have a header).
Right-click and choose Paste (or press Ctrl+V).
Important Tip: This only works if you have not sorted or changed the order of the numbers in either sheet. The lists must match perfectly from top to bottom.
