I'm running Excel 2003. I'm trying to compare two lists that don't match
exactly. I've been using Vlookup, but if the cell content of my search is
not the same as the array I'm comparing it to, it does not find it.
For example: I'm searching for "Mary Smith". The array contains "Smith,
Mary". VLookup won't find the record because it doesn't match exactly what
I'm searching for. Because I'm comparing thousands of records against an
extremely large database, it's not feasable for me to just do a search.
Any insight?

Thanks,
