Excel Question (Macro, Vlookup, other method?): Same name highlighting

Well, this looks like it would work if one column was composed of half of the name, but I can't see how to use it with both columns having the same name but in different string format?

Excel Question (Macro, Vlookup, other method?): Same name highlighting

Hi guys, I have a column of names in A column, and a column of names in B column. I need to highlight (or put into a third column) the duplicates. The catch- one column is in "first last" format and the other is in "last, first" format. Ideas? Thanks!

Fixing a flickering HP LCD monitor

Fixing a flickering HP LCD monitor

Alright reporting back. It looks like there is a backlight on the top and the bottom of this model. Both backlights flicker. I tried unplugging one backlight, and the screen then works fine with no flickering (albeit dimmer than normal, but perfectly viewable). However, after a few seconds the...

Fixing a flickering HP LCD monitor

Ah ok, thats a great idea. For that, I will need to get to the panel and string out the connections carefully, so I will do that tonight and post findings late tonight/tomorrow morning. Thats a good eye- but I think those are just marker marks from the original assemblers-
