Default Need data from one worksheet to be in a list in another worksh

Hi Biff,

No, there are no duplicates in column A. There should never be for example
two 123456-01, instead one would be -01 and another may be -01B

Worksheet 1
A B C D
12956-01 A 5 9
94539-03B D 3 7
45567-02 A 20 8
12956-02B B 12 2
947345-05 Q 2 3

Worksheet 2
A B C
12956
12956-01 5
12956-02B 12

Is there a formula where I can take everything starting with 12956 in Col
A
and its value in Col C from Worksheet 1 and put it in Worksheet 2? In
worksheet 2 I have the 6 digit number I am looking for located in A1
because
I will need to change it often, but in worksheet 1 that number has an
hyphen
with up 3 characters behind it.

My worksheet 1 has a few thousand rows and I just can't seem to find the
right formula. Can anyone help?
