When using a drop down to get it to reference another cell
How do I select a item in a drop down or Validation and get a price to show
up in another cell. I have 30 items in my drop down. So in column C it will need to reference 30 prices along with those items. I think you can only have 7 If then sceriario's. This is excell 2003 |

You can use the VLOOKUP function to return related prices. There are
instructions he http://www.contextures.com/xlFunctions02.html There's a sample order form here were prices are returned for the selected item: http://www.contextures.com/xlOrderForm01.html Josh wrote: How do I select a item in a drop down or Validation and get a price to show up in another cell.

Here you have use both validation and v lookup
For eg there in col A there is a item description and in col B there is the price now you need to validate first col A and the table for the price of those product should be ready some where on the same sheet far from the main table. col A(description) col B (price) Table 10 Formula for vlook up will be =VLOOKUP(A2,Q2:R6,2,FALSE) now any one selecting from the drop down list will get the price accordingly -- Thanks Suleman Peerzade "Josh" wrote: How do I select a item in a drop down or Validation and get a price to show up in another cell.
