Hi Chris

In E2 enter
=IF(D2="",0,IF(D2="C",B2*.001,IF(D2="M",B2*.0001,I F(D2="E",B2,0))))

I have used 0 if D2 is empty or it is any letter other than C, M or E
because you are multiplying E2 by A2 in cell F2
If we used Null "" you would get a #VALUE error in F2

I have an Time and Material Calculator that I have made. I
would
like to be able to asign a number to a letter. Example if I enter "C"
into a
column I would like it to represent .001. If I enter "M" into the
same
column I would like it to represent .0001, and if I enter "E" it would
represent 1. When I get pricing for my materials they come per 100,
1000
or each. I would like to just enter the pricing, unit of measure and
have it
calculate the per item pricing. Example, widgit A cost 80 per 100, I
would
like to enter 80 and a C and have it calculate that it cost .80 per
widgit.
Right now it looks like this


Quan Item Price Unit Each Cost
2 Widgit 80 C .80 1.60

At this time when I get the updated pricing I have to go
through and change the "price" and "each" column every time I get
updated
pricing. I would like to be able to just change the "price " column.
I
hope I exlplained this right. Thanks for any help!
