Basically, I want to match meter IDs from two different datasets: shapefile and excel file.

 

Meter IDs in both datasets might have typos such as dashes, dots, letters, slashes, which I need to remove first.

 

Then I want to match MTR_NO from Excel against Mother_1 , Child_3, & Child_4. My idea is to export an excel table that will include only matching meter IDs.
