    Delete rows containing same string

    Hello!

    I have two columns. Column A has a number, then a "/" and then a name:

    "
    123456 / John Doe
    23442343 / Test Name
    6323432 / Clara Test
    "

    Column B has just names:

    "
    Jason Doe
    John Doe
    Marc Test
    "

    Now, I want to delete all rows in column A which contain names from column B.

    In this case I would want column A, to look like this:

    "
    23442343 / Test Name
    6323432 / Clara Test
    "

    How would you do this?

    Thank you very much!
