Default Searching for a number in a list

Hi - I'm trying to do the following:

In Cell B1, I have the value "Smith, Joe"
In cell a4, I have a total number of hours for Joe Smith: 40. Depending on
the detail hours reported, the total hours may be in a different line. For
example, if Joe had 6 line items of detail, the total would be in line a6.

So, I have to first find Joe Smith in the spreadsheet, then find the total
line. Any ideas?
