Default combination searched

Does anyone know if it is possible to do combination searches with or without
ASAP utilities in Excel.

For example, I have one column that is postal codes (V2X 3T7), and one that
is names (Jack). I'm looking for a function that will allow me to search
multiple sheets/tabs for Jack and V2X. Something like Jack*V2X that will give
me all the "Jacks" with that postal prefix.

Any suggestions? So far I have only been able to search these separately.

Any help would be great!

By using AutoFilter you can set up separate criteria on each column and
display only those rows that match all criteria.
