I am trying to add an employee value, something like "6TU", to a blank
column on a spreadsheet (sheet 1). The employee value is on a
seperate sheet (sheet 2) with an associated employee number in the
same row. e.g. Col A has employee number "12345"; Col B has the
employee value "6TU". I want to copy the employee values to Sheet 1
in association with the employee numbers. The problem: The employee
numbers on sheet 1 are imbeded in the name of the employee in Col A.
Something like "Jim Smith (12345)". What formula to use to extract
the number from Col A sheet 1, associate it with the right number on
sheet 2 Col A, to get the value on sheet 2 Col B, and put it in the
blank Col B on sheet 1.
