You can show the count in a message box or in a cell...
You can show the addresses of the occurrences...

To search in b-j replace Range("A2:A65000").Select with
Range("B2:J65000").Select

but all this is already provided by the Excel Search function...

Thats perfect!! A tow part question. If col b - j has information regarding
the person, can that be brought up in the search window also? How could i get
it to show if the name is in the list more than once. Example below

A B C D E F
1SEARCH WINDOW
2 NAME DOB HT WT HAIR EYES
3 DOE JOHN 10/10/09 6' 150 BRO GRN

One way is to enter the last name to find in A1 and execute the marco below;
'It will select the cell, in Col A, containing the same last name as in A1
Sub FindSelect()
Dim c As Range, s As Long
Range("A2:A65000").Select
Set c = Selection.Find(Range("A1").Value)
If Not (c Is Nothing) Then
c.Select
Else
Range("A1").Select
MsgBox "Last Name: " & Range("A1").Value & " not found!"
End If
End Sub
