Answer 1

First you need to format your dates properly. Format them as date times etc.

Then in the sheet 2 results column have a function something like this:

=IF(AND(A1=Sheet1!A1, B1>=Sheet1!B1, B1<=Sheet1!C1),TRUE,FALSE)

This will return TRUE for John for instance.

You then extend this for the rest of your cases.
