Hey everyone!

I work in a medical lab and I cave created a worksheet for our daily appointments. What I want to do is to be able to build a database with all the patients.

I was thinking that somehow I could send the data from a specific cell range to the database, so the next time these patients visit again their data will be completed automatically when I start typing their name.

I'll give an example because I'm not sure what I write makes sense...
After I had built that data base (maybe by sending excel data to access database), I want to be able to type a letter (for example W) in the excel cell and to be presented with a full list of names starting with that letter (for example Wright, Williams, Woods etc), pick one of them and have the rest of the data (father's name, phone number etc) auto-filled.
Hope it's clearer now :)
