Default match data

Hi,
Assuming that in Worksheet B, you have the full company name and telephone
numbers in columns B and C respectively. Please enter the following formulae
in column A.
=MID(B1,1,FIND(" ",B1)-1)
Assuming that you have the company name in column A of worksheet A, Insert
the following formulae in the column B of worksheet A.
=MID(A1,1,FIND(" ",A1)-1)
Now enter the following formulae in in column C of worksheet A:-
=VLOOKUP($B:$B,'Worksheet B'!$A:$C,3,0)
and drag it down till the last data.

This will give you the telephone numbers listed against the same company
from worksheet B.
