Drop Down list Formula Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please
Hello,
I am currently creating an annual leave formula for the company I work in and I need help. I have created 4 headings Holiday. Lieu.Sick. Other. And I need to create a drop down list containing; Holiday: All Day, Holiday: Half Day AM, Holiday: Half Day PM, Lieu Day: All Day, Lieu Day: Half Day AM, Lieu Day: Half Day PM, Sick, Other: All Day, Other: Half Day AM, Other: Half Day PM. I know how to create the drop down list but I need to create a value for the Days, ex. Holiday: Half Day AM. would equal 0.5 when selected from the list and show as 0.5 under the Holiday column. And when I select Other: All Day, it would equal 1.0 under the Other Column. Can someone please help me on resolving this issue as I have created my spreadsheet but am unable to get past this stage. I appreciate any forthcoming help!!!!!!!!! Thanks. |

Probably use a VLOOKUP formula with Holiday configurations in a column and
the value for that configuration in the next. The formula would look something like this: =VLOOKUP(Drop down cell,F1:G4,2,0) HTH Regards, Howard "2010" wrote in message ...

=VLOOKUP(Drop down cell,F1:G10,2,0)
This may be a bit closer to the proper formula as you have about 10 configurations and I allowed for only 4 in the previous formula. Regards, Howard "L. Howard Kittle" wrote in message ...

Not to disparage your efforts LH but I'm not sure what's required here.
Definitely VLOOKUP is a good place to start but............... I keep looking at this and realize that OP may have one dropdown list and wants the selections' values distributed into 4 columns depending upon choice of Holiday, Lieu, Sick and Other Can OP cofirm that? Where is the dropdown list located? If OP(2010) wants to send me the workbook and some explanation I'll have a look at it. gorddibbATshawDOTca change the obvious.
