Hello,
I'm trying to:
A) search for a value in a column (i.e., a person's last name)
B) in another place, print the whole row where each instance of the value is found.
In other words, the goal is to have a list of a list of rows plucked from the whole document, each of which was chosen because of a common value.
Can anybody give me a quick overview of how I'd do this? Even if you can't give me specifics, I'd love to know what I should be researching.
I really appreciate it.
Sam

If this something you'll be doing often, then you will probably want a VBA solution which will loop through a list of names. However, for a non-VBA approach that may work for you, take a look at using Advanced Filter with crtieria.

Palmetto, thanks for the reply. I failed to mention that this would have to be automatic, so I assume a VBA solution will be the way forward. I'm a relative novice so I'll have to do some research on how to implement that.
Thanks again.
Sam
