Default Searching for different items

Hi

I'm creating an excel database with 2 tabs - one of which will be a front
page, containing formulas to conduct a search from tab 2 - a data dump page.

I understand how to do VLookups, but i'm looking for a formula which means I
can search for E.g :

Look for Fred, In warrington, with Volvo - is this possible to search for
several items ??

Anything you can help me with will be much appreciated.
