No, what you you want to do can't be done with VLOOKUP. If you had a
single column on a single sheet, the autcomplete facility you're looking
for would happen automatically, but I don't know of a way to create it
across sheets.

Thanks, Ray.  VLOOKUP seems to be what I need.  However, I'm not
concerned about the names in Col. A because in some cases it's the
wife's name, sometimes it might be the husband's name or both names.
The address would be the cross-reference I'm looking for.

Would I still use the first example you referenced?

I have never used VLOOKUP before.  Therefore, I'm not sure how to change
it if I need to.

I appreciate your comment regarding Excel and Access.  I prefer to use
Excel whenever I can even if it's only for addresses.
