Use VLOOKUP()

Once the user has filled A1 using the pull-down, each of the secondary cells
can contain a VLOOKUP formula based upon finding the value in A1 in a table
and looking across to get the correct data for that A1 choise.

I am creating a validation to link to a list of account numbers. Each
account number is has a company name, address, etc. As the user drops the
list down to select an account number I would like to other cells to populate
with €˜name of company, €˜contact, €˜address, and €˜telephone number, etc.
Each of these items must populate in different cells. How do I link a drop
down list validation in one cell to multiple cells that will populate after
the user selects an account number? Thank you for your help. Jason
