Linking choices in drop down menu to have automatic answer...
Still confused...
Column One has drop down
Ideal Client
Needs Work
No Ideal
Column Two should automatically generate these numbers:
Ideal Client = 3
Needs Work = 2
No Ideal = 1

If you only have a "few" selections:
A1 = drop down list
=IF(A1="Ideal Client",3,IF(A1="Handholding",2,IF(A1="Not Ideal",1,"")))
If you have many selections then you should create a lookup table:

In my excel project, I've created a drop down menu in one cell. In the
adjacent cell, I want to have answers automatically generated when you
choose
one of the choices in the drop down menu. For example, in the drop down
menu
I have:
DROP DOWN MENU SCORE
Ideal Client 3
Handholding 2
Not Ideal 1
If I chose Ideal Client from the drop menu, I want the next cell to
automatically give the score of 3. How can I do this?
