OssieMac,

Thank you for the response. I did what you said but with me being new to
the drop down function. I used data validation to create the list that i
needed and to tranfer to my work sheet. I don't know if I need to create a
formula to complete what I want. Or maybe it can't be done? I will try to
explain what I want - On my data source page in column A I have the name of
the vendor and in B the type of service they provide. On my target work
sheet in column A is where the information from my drop down list is
transferred. I would like the information in column B from my source
transfer to column G on my target. Right now on my source I only have column
A as my source. Maybe I need to include both A & B as my source then go to
my target work sheet and create a formula that will transfer corresponding
data to A & G. I appreciate any help or direction that you can give.

Thanks

I am new to using drop down lists. I have created a spread sheet that I
use
for construction disbursing. I want to have page that lists all of my
vendors (Vendors) and the work they provide. I named column A which is
all
of my vendors names as Vendors. I went to my payment request page (PR)
and
in column A I utilized the data validation command and was able to get the
information to link. I would like to go one step farther and have
information from the Vendors page column B transfer to column G on my PR
page. I need to make sure that when the vendor name transfers it also
transfers the type of work they complete. Also is there a way that when I
start to type my vendor on the PR page that it will select the correct
vendor
based on the few characters that I type or will I need to select it from
the
list?

New User to drop downs. Thanks
