Default How can I have a row copy to another worksheet based on dropdown v

Hi. I've only dabbled in Excel, but I'm trying to make a spreadsheet to help
myself and co-workers monitor our customer's contracts and the associated
end/renewal dates.

I've figured out how to make drop-down boxes and get the data entered.
However, I can't seem to figure out how to have an entire row populate on a
separate sheet if "Employee #1" is selected from the dropdown list.

As a very simple example. The columns are "Date, Customer Name, Contract,
Employee Name #1, Employee Name #2". Our manager can enter all of the data,
and selects an Employee Name from the drop-down. If that employee is "John",
I'd like the row to copy over to the Worksheet "John". Likewise for other
employees and for the column Employee Name #2). That would allow the manager
to print a sheet for each Employee easily, yet manage the data on one main
page.

I suppose it may also be possible to copy the whole spreadsheet to another
sheet and somehow filter the results so that only one Employee's information
shows, but I'm just as clueless as to how to do that.

Any ideas? I imagine it probably isn't that hard. I tried using the LOOKUP
function but ended up with tons of duplicate entries.
