Default help collecting data.

hello,
another question from the official excel newbie! any and all help is greatly
appriceated guys!

So I have this list i'm always talking about that has product numbers in
column A, product prices in column B, and order number for the products in
column C ... most products have more than once instance.. for example

product a 10.99 345353
product a 11.99 3445453
product a 10.99 657567
product a 8.99 345353
product a 10.99 5464646

so what I'm trying to do now is , when i type in the product number(products
are alphanumeric w/ no spaces - the above is just an example) , I want excel
to search for all entries matching the product entered (A1:A2000) .. If it
finds the products I would like it to display what order numbers are tied to
that product number, maybe seprated by commas?

so if i put in D1 that i'm searching for 'PRODUCTA' it would return
something like this...

345353, 3445453, 657567, 345353, 5464646

showing me all the orders for which that product was used...

is this possible and if so, how?

Thanks alot guys!
