There is no worksheet formula that can cause a cell to overwrite
itself. Either you made a mistake in describing what you want, or
you'd have to use a VBA macro that's triggered by the Change event.

Sorry Stan you are correct I meant if I enter BT2 in A1 (with the number
part variable) it enters Bob Todd in A2

Thanks

in A2 try:
=IF(OR(A1={"BT1","BT2"}),"Bob Todd","")
