You'd need to create a table that lists all numbers and
corresponding names, and then use a VLOOKUP formula to
pull in the name. See these sites for examples:

I am doing my schedule using number for each of my
employees. The problem is
that I know who corresponds to each number, but that not
the case of my
employees or patients... so I have to retype a special
schedule for them...
is it possible to affect a name to a number so that when
I type 1 in a case I
will get Mark for example?
thanks for your help
