Default formula help


i got a worksheet such as this:

SequenceId Musician Initial YOB YOD Instrument
1 Micheal A. 1975 1999 Chello
2 Tom I. 1960 1989 Piano
3 Hans J. 1982 2000 Piano
4 Hans J. 1982 2000 Keyboard
5 Hans J. 1982 2000 Orchestra

I want to be able to retrieve every information sequenceid,initial
yob,yod just by matching the name - i went through various match if,
vlookup etc formulas but nothings working - at best i got the last
matches but not all of the possibilities - for example i only get 5 j.

Default formula help

You can do that with AutoFilter on the DATA menu, by stating criteria to
filter out unwanted results. If you need to do this with a formula to get a
count goto to help and lookup the DCOUNT formula function
