I have a table of data and have created a search function to find a name within a column of that data. What equation would I need to use to have the next few cells of information that is attached to that name appear in the cells following the search function cell? I used Aaron as an example, but if I changed the name to Greg, then I would want all of his data to appear in the three following cells.

Ex:
NameGrade%Score
(Search box) AaronB+88.2Good
AaronB+88.2Good
DanielA95.4Great
GregC74.6Average
MattD-62.5Poor

Need equations for the grade, %, and score cells for the search box row.
 

Excel Facts

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
Sounds like you want to use VLOOKUP (see: https://www.techonthenet.com/excel/formulas/vlookup.php).

So, let's say that your data underneath the lookup row is A3:D6. Select that whole range and name (something like "MyRange").
If you do not know how to name ranges, see: http://www.contextures.com/xlNames01.html

So, then in cell B2, where you want to lookup the Grade for the person selected in cell A2, enter this formula:
Code:
=VLOOKUP($A2,MyRange,COLUMN(),0)
and copy to cells C2 and D2.

This will return the values you want.
