Default Linking a specific x/y position in a table (appended)


The term "Then" is used only in VBA code.
In a worksheet formula, "Then" is implied...

If("The cat is black", "Avoid It", "Feed It")...
-or-
If(True, do if true, do if false)

There are two separate help files, one for vba programming and
one for Excel. Look in the Excel Help file under "If Function".
Also, helpful advice here...

Thanks Jim, vlookup works just fine!
My next issue is the if/then series of input variables... I have read
about IF, but there doesn't seem to be a THEN command.
If I have a drop-down box in cell A2 that has 3 variables, can an
formula be set up that will determine which data sheet will be used
based on the number selected in that A2 drop-down box?
IE: if A2=500, then use the "500" chart on Sheet3
Thanks!
Craig

Suggest you start with the VLookup function which will find a value
in a table column and return the value from another column.
It is explained in Excel help.
