numbers and the name, address, etc. from a second spreadsheet.

Assuming that the phone numbers are put in the same way (i.e.
555-555-1234 vs. (555)555-1234 on the different spreadsheets, you can
do an INDEX and MATCH formula.

Sheet1 has just the phone numbers (in col A)where you want more
information
Sheet2 has the addresses (col B) and phone numbers(col A)

in Col B of Sheet 1 right the following
=INDEX(Sheet2!B$1:B$1000,MATCH($A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$A$ 1000,0),0)

Say Column A has Phone numbers in Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 has Phone No in
Column A, Name In Column B, Address in Column C then use a vlookup

Name =VLOOKUP($A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$D$13,*2*,FALSE)
Addess =VLOOKUP($A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$D$13,*3*,FALSE)

To change lookup column just change the bol number.

Note you get a #N/A if number not in list
