Thanks Eduardo:
If the first column has a drop down list so the person can either enter the
number or select it from the list, will this still work?

Hi Ken,
yes you can do it but you need a data base where you have your ID and your
name together then in another cell you can enter a formula like this and it
will bring the name once the ID is typed

=+VLOOKUP(A6,Dealername!A:B,2)

I asumme that you have only 2 columns and the name is in the 2nd one

I would like to know if there is a way to autofill cells adjacent to other
cells. What I have are dealer ID numbers in one range of cells on a separate
worksheet and their names in another range of cell on the worksheet named
DealerID and DealerName. If I select their ID or fill in their ID number in
one cell, I would like it to fill in the adjacent cell with their name. Is
this possible or am I expecting too much and should try Access instead?
Thanks, Ken
