Put this in D16:
=VLOOKUP(A16,A$2:B$6,2,0)
then copy down.
If you want it a bit more robust, then you will need something like
this:
=IF(A16="","",IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A16,A$2:B$6,2,0)),"" ,VLOOKUP(A16,A$2:B
$6,2,0)))
Hope this helps.

I am using Excel 2007 *and here is an simplified example of what I need..
* * Items * * * * Price
Potatoes * * * *4.35
Apples * * * * *5.55
Oranges * * * *7.95
Onions * * * * *4.55
Carrots * * * * 3.75
Items Column is List for Valid entries in table below
Prices are the numbers I want entered when I enter the Item
If I enter Oranges from Dropdown List in A16 , I want Excel to automatically
enter the number 7.95 3 columns over in D16,or if it is quite a bit easier,
just 1 column over in cell B16
Example of table I want:
My Entries: * * * * * * * *Excel Enters
A16 Carrots * * * * * * * D16 *3.75
A17 Oranges * * * * * * *D17 *7.95
A18 Onions * * * * * * * *D18 *4.55
A19 Onions * * * * * * * *D19 *4.55
A20 Potatoes * * * * * * *D20 *4.35
Thanks so much for your help !
