A little tip to make it easy to find things.  I use Excel and highlighted the main database (A3:S3218). Then choose data from the top menu and then filter.  This adds a filter to each column and by clicking on the icon at the top of each column, you can see all the column entries and filter immediately to find what you're interested in.  Hope this helps.
