No one can see what you're missing.. you might try posting the formula which
returns that message.

I've been wondering about this problem also, and I've tried both

suggestions
and get #VALUE!

What am I missing?

Take a look at VLOOKUP. You create a table with all the matching values

then use the VLOOKUP formula where you want the prices to appear.

I want to associate typed words and monetary values so that I don't

have
to
continually retype the price. Is there a table that I can set up that

a
template or document draws from?? An example would be that everytime I

type:
PSL 3.5 x 9.5 it would bring up $9.25 into a specific field for

further
computation.
