I'm the first to admit I'm not the best Excel user, so I'm coming to you guys
for help. Here's what I have:

Sheet 1, Column E contains a G/L number, like this: 12345-1001 or
12345-0057; the cells are formatted as text. Column G contains the
Description of that G/L number (text) and Column M contains a cost (formatted
as Accounting w/ 2 decimal places).

Here's what I've been asked to do:

Create a formula so that the user can (on Sheet 2), type in cell A1 the G/L
prefix, which is the first 5 digits of the G/L number (e.g., 12345) and the
formula finds all the G/L numbers on Sheet 1 that begin with those 5
characters and copies the information from Column E (the G/L number), Column
G (the description) and Column M (the cost).

Then, below that, the user will type in the next G/L prefix (ie, 22345) and
the formula would find the matches and paste the data, etc.

I hope I'm explaining this clearly. I've read so many articles this morning
trying to figure out what this formula looks like that I think I'm more
confused now than when I started. I'm using Excel 2003.

ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated!
