Hi:

Two possible methods:

Use vlookup in the cell with an if as in

if(a1="","",vlookup(a1,data,2,false))


or use the on change event for the worksheet check changes in the cell and
then put the rate in the adjoining cell.

How do I get data automatically entered into a cell when I enter data into an
adjoining cell? I'm doing a payroll project, and I basically want to enter a
name in one cell and have that person's hourly wage data automatically
entered in the next cell without having to type in the dollar amount every
time.
