I have names and various data, including dates. Data dump worksheet includes Names, Date, and data. I want to look within existing multiple worksheets to find the name from data dump WS, then update the date and increase the count of two additional cells. Can this be done with a formula, or do I need to find someone to write a macro?



Existing WS



Alexander             |  24NOV18  |  13  |  6


Dump WS



Alexander             |  18DEC18  |  (irrelevant data)


Desired output on Existing WS



Alexander (no change) |  18DEC18  |  14  |  7


(where the last two columns are a simple +1 on the previous count)
