The names circled in blue are fixed and never change.
The names circled in red could potentially change order each time it is pasted.
Thats where the problem comes in. It would be simple if each of the names in the red circle were fixed too but their not. As the names change position frequently I was wondering if it were somehow possible to match the names in blue circle with the names in the red circle. Thus making it possible to use the data in the red circle to change the values in the blue circle.
Hopefully someone understood all the red circle/blue circle nonsense. I don't care if its not possible but I would like to know and if is possible I'd like to know how :P
Thanks,

If you're still wondering, I'd do a Vlookup from another sheet
