Default HELP ON VLOOKUP

Hi Bonnie,

Concatenate the Product name and Item#, both in the lookup table and in the search argument

Concatenation can be done with the "&" operator or with the CONCATENATE() function

Post again in this thread if you can't get it done

Kind regards,

| I have made a form and inserted VLookups. In my list of products there is

|
| Product name Item # Discription Unit of measure
| Buccaneer Plus #00521 2x2.5ga ju ga
| Buccaneer Plus #00522 30ga drum ga
| Buccaneer Plus #00523 Bulk ga ga
|
| So then I made a drop down list from the product name and everything else
| fills in itself because of the vlookups I put in.
|
| The problem is it only recognizes the first product name and number.
|
| How can I fix this? What should I do different?
