I need a formula to fill in names in sheet 3 into the time slots that
correspond with thier assignments in sheets 1 and 2. For instance, the
formula in cell d6 would search sheets 1 and 2 until it find "SA 60 4P-12M"
until it found the information found in cell d8 in sheet 2. Notice that in d8
"W/T" is in between "SA 60" and "4P-12M" but not allows.

I also added another sheet, #5 and in A:1 wrote SA 60 8a-4p.
So far, I have tried =VLOOKUP(Sheet5!A1,'Sheet1''Sheet2'!B1:H10,1,TRUE)
