Hello,


Hopefully somebody can help me with the following:

I have a script that imports data from an external source to sheet1.
On sheet2 I have named range EMPLOYEE which holds the employee code in
columnA and the full name in columnB.
What I would like is a vba script to walk through each value in column
A on sheet1 to replace the employeecode with the fullname which can be
found on sheet2 (EMPLOYEE).

(EMPLOYEE is sorted on employeecode).

I know how to do this with vlookup, however I would like to have this
automated.

Thanks,

Mark
