creating a formul

I would guess that perhaps the data that's in AX3 doesn't *exactly* match
what's in Column B.

Do you import any of your data?
Are the names "full" names, first, and/or middle and last names, where there
might be a possibilty that the spaces between them might not be a normal
Char(32) space?
Could there be a possibility of leading and/or trailing spaces?

For a test, key a name into Column B.
Enter that same name in *exactly* the same way into AX3, and see if you get
a correct return from your formula.

I tried this formula and get a "not found" also this is how the formula gets
entered. Don't know why. It was entered as below.
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(AX3,[GEO.xls]Sheet2!$B$4:$B$18,0)),"not
found",INDEX([GEO.xls]Sheet2!$Q$4:$Q$18,MATCH(AX3,[GEO.xls]Sheet2!$B$4:$B$18
,0)))

I have tried to use the suggested formula (=code(mid(a1,5,1,)) and in case
one received 32 as result. when I then go to search replace I have entered
spaces to search and spaces to replace( four blank spaces to search and two
blank spaces to replace.)This does not work and can't figure how else to use
the search replace. Any further help appreciated

If you wish, you can send me your sheet, and I'll see what I can figure out.

The list above shows names with the A A as an extention. This seems to
create my problem. If I try to simply delete these "A A" the names can not
be properly spaced. This probably results in the hidden spaces you speak of.
Is there any method to remove the extension and allow for proper spacing.
After all your help it appears to boil down to this.

I can't tell what your data contains from just looking at it in your post.

If you don't wish to send me a copy, there's really nothing more I can
suggest to you, besides perhaps the outside chance that "Text To Columns"
might accomplish something.

I thought what I sent would help one last thought. I've tried to use the
trim and/or clean funtion to remove what appears to be a hidden character and
hidden space. The character is removed the spaces of the name is correct but
when I reverse the names (from first and last) to (last and first)using a
workable formula the spacing reverts tothe incorrect multiple spacing. It's
mind boggling

I would like to send the sheet to you however all I have is a list of names
and dollar amounts. This represent earnings that I am tracking. There is
the additional letter as a trailer to some of the names.(this designates
participation in an additional group. The use of clean function does
deletethe letter but the hidden space remains. The use of the trim function
can not correct this situation. I copy the list from the web. If you can
suggest how I might send it to you I will be pleasedto do so. Or any other
suggestions you might have

A new question.
I am able to copy data from column of numbers to a corresponding column
using the following basic formula =b11 to represent column b row 11. In the
corresponding column I can drag the first cell data down the column and all
data is transfered. I there a formula to use to data from rows to columns
using the same concept. I am looking to have the column heading change and
the data row remaing the same.
