Contest Brief

NOTE: I will award the prize to the first person who creates the most complete list of approx 500 emails by November 20 10AM Eastern Standard Time. Or I will award it to the most complete list at the end date of the contest.

ACT FAST AND BE ACCURATE TO WIN!!!

I need someone to transform some data.

There are two sheets in the attached spreadsheet:
1) email addresses with the @ removed
2) websites that correspond to the emails

Because most of the emails have the same suffix (ie. after the @ sign) as the URL, I need someone to do the following.

Create a script that does a loop through spreadsheet 2 to go through all of the URLs in succession. In each loop, it should look up the URL in spreadsheet 1. Then it should replace any URL in spreadsheet 1 with @URL so that if creates a complete email address.

For example

Spreadsheet 1:
lincolnianaol.com

Spreadsheet 2:
aol.com

So the script should replace "aol.com" in spreadsheet 1 with "@aol.com" in spreadsheet 1 so that "lincolnianaol.com" is transformed into "lincolnian@aol.com"

Then I need the remainder fixed manually. The entire list is on the follwing site:

http://hq.abaa.org/books/antiquarian/databases/bookseller_search.html

THE END RESULT WILL BE A LIST OF USABLE EMAIL ADDRESSES IN SPREADSHEET 1.
