You can do this without VBA

Name the range where all the data exists (I'm gonna call it "CertData
Name the range (cell) where you want to type the product code (I'm gonna
call it "ProdCode")
Make the formula in the data fialds on the certificate like:
=Vlookup(ProdCode,CertData,2 False)
Where "2" is the column in the data containing the value you want.

Easy huh?
