You should use a data validation drop-down in column A, so that each cell can hold a different name.

Yes I'm familiar with both. Every play Golf? I'm trying to design a portable Scoring Card for the guys I play with. At the top of the Card is a Drop Down Box. So by selecting Tim, VLOOKUP goes and finds Tim, displays his name on Row 3 Cell A, displays his Handi-Cap Row 3 Cell B. No problems there. Now I want to go back to the same Drop Down Box and select another player to be displayed on Row 4, Cell A & B, just like Tim.
