Need help with a worksheet
 

A co-worker has been working really hard on this and has previously posted,
but shes stumped. Here's our situation -

We need a spreadsheet for tracking bonuses. There will be 7 columns - date,
policyholder, policy, type, premium, bonus and initials. We'll fill in the
date, policyholder and initials columns. We created dropdown boxes for the
policy and type columns. Once we choose the Policy, we need the Type
dropdown list to be a dependent dropdown, (with only the associated "Types"
showing), and for the bonus to fill itself in based on the policy and type
chosen. Unless Fire or Auto is chosen, in which case we need it to calculate
2% of the premium we enter.

We have worked and worked on this and still cant get everything to work.

We have tried the following formulas -

=OFFSET(PolicyStart,MATCH(B5,PolicyColumn,0)-1,1,COUNTIF(PolicyColumn,B5),1)

=IF(C5=€�€�,PolicyList,INDEX(PolicyColumn,MATCH( C5,TypeColumn,0)))

=SUM(E5*2%)

=vlookup(D6,A1:B3,2,FALSE)

=VLOOKUP(D5,Policies!C3:D23,2,FALSE)

And we have used the following informational links -
