How do I change the output value of a drop down box?
I want to create a drop down box that displays a rebar size. upon selection
of the size, in the output cell designated, I would like it to display the area of that rebar size. I can't use a simple if statement because there are 10 different size and you can only use 7 nested if statement. what can I do? |

If your drop down is A1
and you want your output to be in say B1 Lets say your list is in C1:D10 column C is where you made your drop down list from, column D is where your rebar output would reside Then =VLOOKUP(A1,C1:D10,2,FALSE) TRUE means Col.C is sorted or FALSE for unsortd (alpha-numerical order) "DALLIN" wrote: I want to create a drop down box that displays a rebar size. upon selection of the size, in the output cell designated, I would like it to display the area of that rebar size.
