You can name another range (PriceList), that includes the items, and the
prices.

Then, create a formula to calculate the price when an item and quantity
have been entered. For example, in cell C2:

=IF(OR(A2="",B2=""),"",VLOOKUP(A2,PriceList,2,FALS E)*B2)

I have made a drop down menu (by defining a name)

I would like to make it so it changes the price in a different column
when i change the drop down menu item

for example i have

ITEM QUANTITY PRICE

i want to make it so that when I choose the item from the drop down
menu and enter in the quantity it will calculate the total price

for example if i choose a boxed pin from the item menu and then type in
2 in quantity i want it to show up as $20 in the price ($10 each)

is there a way to do this?

thanks
