On one worksheet I have a table such as the table below. On another worksheet I have a bunch of lookups that are based off a couple of unique values. Name is repeating, but identifier is not. On another sheet, I need a dynamic drop-down list of all identifiers for a given name. For example, if Cell A2 says "Gary", I need Cell A3 to be a drop-down list for all 4 Identifiers associated with Gary. Also, I cannot use named ranges because the raw data is too long and i need the "name" value elsewhere in the worksheet.

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 124pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=165 border=0><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 61pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 2962" width=81><COL style="WIDTH: 63pt;
