# Excel-Compare
ExcelCompare is a desktop application designed as a small tool for banking staff to process people's salaries through Excel sheets. The motivation behind this project is to provide a simple and efficient way for banking staff to check for discrepancies in case someone modifies the Excel sheets in any way.
The application allows users to compare two Excel sheets and display the differences between them. It provides a user-friendly interface for browsing and selecting the original and compare sheets, and it highlights the differences row-wise. The application is built using PySide6 for the graphical user interface and pandas for reading and comparing Excel data.
## Features
- Select and load the original Excel sheet.
- Select and load the compare Excel sheet.
- Compare the two sheets and identify differences.
- Display the differences in a read-only field.
