Thanks, Chuck! I had forgotten about the VLOOKUP command.

Classic application for the VLOOKUP formula.........
=VLOOKUP(A1,YOURTABLE,2,FALSE)
Where "YOURTABLE" is a named range of two columns listing your values to be

Hello,
I would like to know how to create a formula that looks at a value in one
cell, uses that value to find a corresponding value in a separate table,
and
then enters that value in my sheet. For example, say I want a value to
appear
in cell B1 based on the value in cell A1. If the value in cell A1 is "B",
and
the value in a separate table that corresponds to "B" is $500, I want the
formula in cell B1 to return the value "$500". Any ideas on how to do
this?
Thanks,
Eric
