Default Automatically Populate Fields


Hello,

I am a moderate to proficient excel user but have never used VBA to do
any programming. I am trying to create a spreadsheet to record
purchase orders. I would like to be able to input a purchase number in
one column and have other fields in the row automatically populate such
as "account manager""salesrep", etc... (perhaps pulling from another
sheet with data). Is there a way to do this with excel?

Thank you.

I would suggest looking at the help for event driven macros. In this
case, you need the worksheet_change event with the code placed on the
appropriate sheet code page in the VBA editor.
