Default Vlookup formula


Hi,

Hope someone can help with this..

If range A:A contained First Names and range B:B contained Surnames and
I wanted to find the surname of the person in column A I would use..

=VLOOKUP("John",A:B,2,false) Which would return Smith

is there a way to search for Smith and find the result John?

Thanks

John
