Spiky,
I don't know if I should use "indirect" - I just believe that I should. The
4 digit codes are currently listed as 1 complete reference "LocCode". The
location description is just a general location description, i.e.,
Jacksonville, FL for example. On the sheet where I want the location
description to display (B6) after entering the drop down list of LocCode
(B4), all that should show is "Jacksonville, FL".

The Location Descriptions are referenced as a group "LocDescription"
(Jacksonville, FL). So too the "LocCode" (4 digits) as in "ABCD". All 10
(LocCode in Column A and LocDescriptions in Column B) are grouped in both
columns. I feel I am on the correct path; however, it is also turning out
incorrect.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you for your original post I would be happy to attempt any suggestions
you pose.

Sincerely,
Gerry

If you are trying to get help with Indirect, it would probably better
to give the actual references and formulas. How do your 4 digit codes
turn into a reference? Are there names already defined? What is the
actual output supposed to be in B6?

Also, if LocDescription is a Named Range, you don't need the quotes ""
in the formula.
