    Hi,

    Welcome to the Forum.

    Yes, it is possible with the help of a simple VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH functions.

    If you need further help, can you post a sample file here in excel format demonstrating your requirement? Remember to desensitize the file before upload by deleting confidential info from the file, if any.

    Click on "Go Advanced" & use "Manage Attachments" option to upload the file.

    A simple example for you
    Select a name from dropdown in column A and see what happens

    formula in B2 copied down:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    VLOOKUP wrapped in IFERROR to prevent error in cell if formula cannot find the name
    VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!A:B,2,0)
    VLOOKUP(look for this value,look for it here,return 2nd column,0=EXACT MATCH)
