Trying to use data from another worksheet
I'm trying to have excel automatically input data from a worksheet into
specific cells on another worksheet. To better explain: I have a pay plan that consists of Grades (rows) and Steps (columns) There are 9 different pay grades (ranks) with either 3, 4, or 5 steps in them. I have another worksheet that lists our firefighters alphabetically and contains their pay grade and step in a column. I want excel to transfer the hourly wage from the pay plan to the alphabetical roster worksheet based on the pay grade and step listed in alphabetical worksheet. Any help???? Thanks |

Thanks If the steps are numbered easily, like 1 2 3 4, and the columns in the roster go in the same order, then you can easily use a VLOOKUP to do this. |

And make sure your grades are all typed perfectly on both sheets. |
