I'm sure it could be done using formulas directly in the Excel workbook
but I usually use VBA. Something like this could be used to compare 1
name entered in the first cell of Sheet 1 to 4 names entered into the
first 4 cells of column A in Sheet 2 . . .

Sub findMatch()
Dim myName As String
Dim findName As Variant
Dim loopCounter As Integer
myName = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value
findName = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1:A4")
For loopCounter = 1 To 4
If myName = findName(loopCounter, 1) Then
MsgBox "Match Found! Hello " & myName
End If
Next loopCounter
End Sub
