john, Good morning.

VLOOKUP Function will work perfectly for you.

SUPPOSE:

..........N..............M
1....Emp No........Name
2........1............John
3........2............David
4........3............Abraham
5........4............Joseph
6........5............Alfred

TRY TO USE:

A1 --> TYPE EMP NO DESIRED

B1 --> =VLOOKUP(A1, N2:M6, 2, FALSE)

Is that what you want?
I hope it helps.
