    Sorting 1 row into 2

    hi all

    i have a list of information like;

    random info 1
    random info 2
    random info 3
    name
    number
    random info 4

    this pattern repeats down about 1,000 times

    i have a list of all the numbers in sheet 2 (i did this by using find and copy and pasted it), now from the list of numbers i need the name that goes with it, any ideas on how to do this, the name will always be in the cell directly above the number.

    sorry if i haven't explained myself well

    thanks for any help

    michael
